Billionaires / the 1% / whatever category of rich assholes you choose obviously use much more resources than “the common man”. Still, if we, as humanity, do not change how and what we consume, cutting what the rich use would not even remotely be enough.
When i have more than one option and limited resources I like to prioritize things so I will get the most ‘bang for my buck’.
If changing our diets can help 1% but eliminating infrastructure will help 40% then you can fuck off about my diet I don’t care that it might ‘also help’ my abilities and resources are limited and I am going to direct what I have at the biggest result. Does that make sense?
Penny wise, pound foolish is the old aphorism that applies here. It doesn’t matter if the whole species eats like good little boys and girls if the 1% and the militaries they control are hellbent on burning fossil fuels for their pleasure and gain until we all cook.
Cutting down on billionaires would do a lot more for the environment

Both things can be true at the same time.

One is feeding people. The other is just pollution. The last thing you should mess with is people’s food.
But it’s so much easier to ban straws than to make fishing companies responsible for their waste and destruction!
Billionaires like Joesley Batista?
