    The goalpost for individuals is pushed further to make up for what corporations are doing, which is…(reads notes)…nothing.

      I keep reading that. But it’s not that simple. Corporations provide what individuals want. Their exploitation of the world’s resources and the damage to the climate is a side product of that. They aren’t a completely separate entity that do what they do just to be evil.

      Governments need to heavily restrict corps and how they operate. Which will come with increased prices and limitations to the people. Which is unpopular and will mean that those politicians won’t get back into office…

      Which is why nothing will happen and we are all fucked

      Yeah, but all the people taking multiple flights a year for weekend getaways aren’t solely the responsibility of the “corporations”, are they?
