Sorry, I’m with @MichaelEMann here. We live in a society that pushes the responsibility of the individual above the structural. It is our duty to push for structural change. https://twitter.com/thierryaaron/status/1385579318273843209
By all means, be vegan, don’t travel, use blankets instead of radiators, but those will always be fringe activities that separate you from the majority.
We need to create sustainable societies building on the present. That’s a different kind of individual action. It’s one that sees the individual as part of society and collective action and not as a consumer.
It’s the the individual-as-consumer that @MichaelEMann & others refute as a possible agent of action against climate change. I think that’s accurate.
