Just an FYI: If you blame individuals (which are not #billionaires) on the #ClimateCrisis I will ask you to leave the #ClimateJustice instances. We don't do this here.
Don't get me wrong: It's good if individuals do "their part" in tackling the climate crisis, by changing their habits and lifestyles, but blaming them, when its clearly the #capitalist system's fault is just wrong.
Be #vegan, consume sustainably, ride your #bike, don't fly.
There are many good reasons to do so, e.g.:
π it's the right thing to do
π it's healthy
π you're a role-model for others
π if many people do this, it slightly changes how companies act.
π it fosters your awareness for the issues
But also be aware that its a droplet on a hot stone. Non-wealthy individuals won't fix the climate with their daily choices. We have to *demand* action by the big players.
And I don't mean blame China!
All of us need to demand radical climate action by our governments.
So please:
β #protest
β #strike
β #unionize
β #block
β #sabotage peacefully
We can do this together! I know we can.
#ConsumerBlaming is #VictimShaming
