Comment on Am I financially enabling child labor in 3rd world countries by buying second hand fast fashion?
Alsjemenou@lemy.nl 1 week agoLet me try and put this into a bit of a different perspective. There is a huge effort to individualise global warming, to accomplish two things. First to guilt trip you and second to create apathy. Because it’s very easy to understand that what creates global warming isn’t going to be solved by changing your individual consumption patterns. And you’re completely correct.
80 percent of total human made greenhouse gas production is done by 57 companies. Who have increased, not decreased, their co2 emissions since the 2016 paris agreement. Because companies aren’t countries. They actually aren’t bound by any such agreements.
Imagine the future without those fuckers. It’s only a couple of companies. It’s not as if we need to destroy half of humanity or flee the planet. Chill out.
