i figure that alone was worth more than the entirety of all my 'carbon footprint' actions (or non-actions) over the previous 30 years - riding a bike, etc. imo.

the whole idea of 'individual actions' -- personal consumer choices -- like not driving and recycling -- contributing to a solution, is bogus, imo.

i get that the idea that individual actions are near-meaningless is not necessarily fun to think about, but...

my guess is greta, and all serious scientists, would agree.

we need 'actions' that get us to a carbon tax and other measures that will address the issue with the seriousness required.
