>>4133186>>4133193I am rather deep into environmentalism and animal rights but the idea you can stop climate change as a citizen is fucking laughable. Just like plastic. You know what would stop plastic? A ban on plastic. No more plastic packaging, no more plastic anything. Toothpaste in glass jars. No more plastic wrap. Ban all plastic drinkware and foodware. Leave plastic only for stuff like disposable medical equipment.
Of course that's impossible.
Want to stop climate change? Stop producing shit in China. Stop importing from China. It makes no sense that I wash and recycle a plastic yogurt cup when in the same timespan some Chinese factory has polluted more than I will in a lifetime.
On top of that all this shit is being used as an excuse to guilt trip "environmentally conscious" people into paying 3, 4 times as much. Climate change is real but nobody who really matters is taking it seriously or there would be drastic laws about it.
As it is it's a very noble concern but it's all a meme.
