    Yes, but the average persons individual efforts mean fuck all in the scheme of things. It’s not individuals that make the difference, it’s the collective effort.

    Which, frankly, doesn’t mean shit in this hypothetical situation. Hypothetically you could use your infinite money to create enough carbon offsets to completely fix the climate entirely for everyone everywhere.

    Obsessing about small things like that to the complete rejection of all joy in life won’t solve anything. If anything it will drive away any positive influences in your life, making you a joyless curmudgeon who can help no one.

      Who’s getting angry and defensive in this debate?

      My concern is with not being a hypocrite, that’s all.
