    We get it, billionaires bad, but it’s in the effing tweet “what they can do as individual”. All the options listed are solid.

      no, they’re not. how about direct action instead of consumer choices?

        Your direct action is to make measured, intentional choices in your day to day life that have an impact related to climate change. Some of them are more direct than others, all of them are important for the topic. What you want is the dopamine hit of quick easy wins, which is not really attainable in this context.

        Your reaction is a classic defense mechanism for people that like to make noise but not actually take any action themselves.

        Because you are the majority we are probably fucked as a species.

          you have no idea what I do, but I guarantee that you can stop purchasing everything on that list, you could die and never purchase any of it again, and the powerful interests responsible for the destruction of the environment will continue to grow.

              if everyone who disagree with you is a bot, you must live in a lonely world.

                We haven’t really disagreed on anything yet. I was just making sure. I also answered your question and you chose to ignore that part.

          you don’t seem to know what direct means.

              and yet they did not actually suggest any direct actions

        I don’t see how these options & direct action ae exclusive?

          I didn’t say they are. but these options are not effective.

            If you have better advice, feel free to share it, but “direct action” sounds Linda vague when you just throw it like you did.

              it’s intentionally vague. build an affinity group and assess your capabilities.

                My dude, being “intentionally vague” is just admitting you’ve got nothing to offer. In fact, your “suggestion” is even less likely to have any effect than implementing the suggested tips from the OP.

                Quit barking.
