Changing individual behavior without changing the system achieves only about 10% emissions reduction. Governments and companies hold the keys for the remaining 90%, this we need to put pressure on them!

A really good study by the World Resource Institute:

To be clear: this does not mean that you shouldn't stop flying, eat less meat, buy less shit and use renewable electricity.
But it means that our time and energy is much better used in fighting for social change.
And, achieving something in community is joy! :bunny:
