"Doing your part" always seemed like a nice way for the rich to put their heads in the sand.

Meanwhile at least 95% of the world population lives from paycheck to paycheck and doesn't have the financial means to buy solar panels, EVs, etc., but also more durable items instead of cheap stuff from China.

No snowflake is single-handedly responsible for the avalanche, plus rich people pollute the most anyway, especially those who live in the west.

But this is why avalanche safety doesn't involve asking individual snowflakes to change their behavior.
