The moment citizens began accepting the doctrine that climate change is a “consumer-led” problem, they lost. The pressure should have always, always been and remained on corporations, not consumers.
So instead of this, now they get away with asking questions like “We can help if you let us raise your essential service taxes, is that okay?”
It’s so ingrained that no one even fathoms to check the “other” box in the survey and write “Actually, you’re the only one whose taxes need to be raised in order to fix this. Let’s do that instead, cut your funding by half while we’re at it, and pass a bill outlawing lobbies for offshore drilling” instead of pearl-clutching about how environmentalist groups are forcing all their heating bills to rise.
They could literally snap their fingers and fix the problem, they have the means to do so and still keep every single yacht they own.
The reason it works so well is, again, class war.
