    You probably can’t stop but you can reduce your power consumption. There’s a lot of studies suggesting if Westerners stopped eating meat and shifted to a plant based diet that we could reduce a lot of our climactic shift.

      So your solution is: austerity for the poors. Not for the rich. But we can slightly reduce our carbon footprint by not eating meat.

      OK. This doesn’t stop climate change. This just makes life harder and less pleasurable for the majority of people. This is what the rich push.

        I never made any comment about anyone’s wealth. That is moronic bullshit you added for no reason.

        The West going to plant based diets would significantly cut emissions. It is what YOU as an individual can do.

        You asked what YOU can do and that is it.

          Nowhere near enough to matter. I mentioned wealth because the vast majority of people are not “rich”. And it’s the rich who own the corporations that make these decisions that affect the climate and how fuels are used.

          I.e. you are proposing austerity for the masses that will NOT stop climate change. You are the problem as you are shilling for big business. My point is there ISN’T anything individuals can do to stop climate change. We have to hold the rich and corporate owners accountable.
