What can we do as the little individual people that we are?
The best you can realistically do is vote for people who care about solving the problem, and against people who ignore the problem.
And if the only ones who don’t accept
bribeslobbying from oil, gas, and coal companies are independents and third parties who have no chance of winning anything because your country’s voting system is first past the post? Then what? ~Strawberry¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Going vegan would help for sure. Less animal products consumed means less animal products produced means waay less pollution.
A lot of change needs to happen on a government-level too, of course, but that is a very tangible, easy-to-achieve goal everyone can do.
Realistically, as an individual? Nothing. I hate doom posting but i genuinely don’t think there is a single tangible change any one regular person could make.
We can all do our part. That doesn’t mean the problems will be solved, but we can all do our part to implement the solution.
Discussion is important. Conservation is important. The biggest issue here isn’t really the individual; it’s society. Change can’t happen in a vacuum. The only way society will change is if, you know, it changes. i.e. people need to be willing to sacrifice short term gains for long term benefit.
If it was sexy to do less, these problems would be solved overnight.
