Greed and Excess Drive the Climate Crisis, So Why Aren’t They Being Questioned?

Un-wealthy === un-powerful.

It's flawed and naive to point fingers at those with relatively no power. This issue is not new. It's been on the radar of those with power for *decades*.

But it easy to shun responsibly and accountability when you're redirecting the narrative from your yacht.

Wow. Another story teller. There was no finger pointing, I did not blame anybody. I simply pointed out the hat the target complaint, if resolved would not change anything.

If you took every yacht away. Nothing about climate would change.

Your response reeks of emotional bias. Please try again.

Bias? Nah.

But you seem to have forgotten saying:

"It’s much more mundane. Normal everyday actions by the un-wealthy masses are what drive carbon emissions."

Before we continue, why do you say what you mean instead of saying what you thought you said?

The fact remains...the power-less are merely "following orders", while the power-having reap the spoils.

Okay neo-matrix post modernist. Nobody is talking about power. The fact you have even brought a power dynamic into this shows exactly who you are. What is worse is you don’t even properly understand the power manic beteeen the masses and the world.

The masses are the post poweful group in the world. They set the pace for everybody else.
