A mere 57 mega polluters produce bulk of the world's greenhouse gas emissions, new analysis shows
www.abc.net.au
Just 57 mega polluters are responsible for the bulk of the world's greenhouse gas emissions and most big fossil fuel players have increased, rather than decreased, their output since the Paris Agreement in 2015, a staggering new report finds.

On the one hand, it makes it really hard to stay motivated with the teeny contribution I make to reducing emissions.
On the other, think of how much of a difference these 57 companies could make if they actually reached net-zero targets.

    I feel that too, but counter it with some good old Taoism:

    “A good person is the bad person’s teacher. A bad person is the good person’s task.”

    It’s ok to be the good person who sets an example, you are still making a difference. Stay motivated friend!
