how do you respond to folks who say “there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism” in regards to you encouraging people to choose more sustainably and take individual responsibility for the crisis (as well as holding governments and corporations responsible)? whenever i talk about boycotting amazon or choosing to be climate neutral by paying off your carbon emissions people call me preformative and that our individual actions don’t matter because it’s all the governments fault. obviously 1% of the population causes like 50% of global emissions but i don’t think individual actions is really that futile! i think choices we make in our every day life improve the quality of the earth but people just blame it on capitalism as an excuse not to take individual responsibility
