Yeah, how corporations managed to convince people that it's people's fault and we should be the ones changing something, not the corporates, is beyond me.
Are you familiar with The Crying Indian?
Full commercial
"Do yourself a favor. Don't turn around."
The thing is that the corporations aren't doing this apropos of nothing. In the end it's us the consumer with our demands for cheap stuff or pension investments or low cost food that is driving the corporate behaviour.
I don't think there's a single person now who can claim they haven't known about this coming for a long time, and yet none of us has done as much as we possibly could to mitigate it.
We're all culpable.
See, this is exactly what I was talking about.
Oh yeah, just realised I was making your point for you
Except there's no way for consumers to select based on climate impact at the moment. We can't see the carbon footprint of the products we buy on the shelf and there's no market mechanism rewarding companies providing products that have a low carbon footprint. We either need much heavier taxes on fossil fuels at the original point of sale, or mandated carbon footprints on product labels.
