    Recycling and blaming everyone for their “carbon footprint” managed to block systemic change for decades.

    We found out recycling was bullshit recently. We found out that reducing your “carbon footprint” by being cold in the winter was bullshit many years ago.

    It’s all bullshit. It always has been. Oil company billionaires decided they wanted to make more money, and that killing the planet’s ability to keep the rest of us alive is worth sacrificing.

    And the oil companies owned the politicians in charge. They still do. As do the insurance companies, the pharmaceutical companies, the banks, etc. The game was rigged from the start.
