If you think that we can get everyone on the same page
I literally say the opposite of this
The only path forward is to jail the corporate executives and rich assholes causing the lion’s share of the issue
In addition to being completely unhinged, this does not address demand at all and someone else will simply start selling those fuels and products/services
I can see you’re having trouble understanding basic logic. Let me explain it to you this way:
If I started a business throwing used motor oil into the ocean, I could charge people next to nothing to take their oil. I would make huge profits by destroying our planet. Your strategy would be to convince all the poor people in America not to use the cheapest option to dispose of their oil. Many Americans don’t have a choice between using an expensive “good for the Earth” option and my business that throws it into ocean for cheap.
You lack an understanding of the people you’re trying to coordinate. Many Americans lack the time and the money to correctly choose the most environmentally friendly option. You will never get everyone on the same page. The only path forward is to punish the rich assholes actually causing the lion’s share of the problem.
The reality is, fossil fuels companies are constantly listed as “top contributors” because they fucking sell fossil fuels.
Until we remove the present need for fossil fuels by disincentivizing them in favor of green technology, then we will continue on this path. Fossil fuels aren’t burnt for fun. They are used to power homes, transportation, etc. That’s what we need to tackle.
I understand it is attractive to have a “villain” to point at. It makes things much easier for you and absolves you of your role. However, this is both non-productive and, ultimately, objectively incorrect.
You’re correct that voluntary abstinence is not enough to be meaningfully impactful, that’s why we lobby for government subsidies and, ideally, carbon taxation.
I know you, personally, are a lost cause - you’ll fight anything that will “disadvantage” you. I’m writing this because some lurker will see it and that’ll be one more vote. One vote at a time is how we win.
I see you were unable to refute any of my points. Instead you continue to bootlick for the rich just like every other lobbyist. Fuck off plutocrat parasite.
If anyone is interested in meaningfully fighting climate change, I highly recommend you get involved.
It’s free, volunteer work, doesn’t take a lot of your time, and you’ll speak face to face with representatives. You can be involved on any level you’d like

You’re either lying or terrible at your job.

This is an idiotic counter-factual.
