That is the most defeatist argument I think I’ve heard. You’re essentially suggesting that it’s too late to fix the biggest issues, so you’re going to protest things that won’t actually have an impact just because it’s easier.

You’re right that people could be doing multiple, I’m just pointing out they aren’t doing that.

At this point it’s clearly either just performative activism, or people are using the environment as an excuse to hide their worries about the economic impacts that may affect them (completely valid)

The third option is that people are so poorly educated that they actually can’t think rationally about this issue. I’m not ruling that out at this point.
