tattooedsocialist: This is what I told a very well-meaning Facebook friend who posted this image and told everyone to stop using plastic bags. Thank you for sharing this and speaking out. We are in a desperate situation. Even if every single person decided to cut disposable plastics out of their lives, the Earth would still be doomed. The fact is, 63% of the industrial carbon pollution released into the atmosphere since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution can be traced to just under 100 companies. If we do not hold these major companies (Chevron, ExxonMobil, Saudi Aramco, British Petroleum, Gazprom, Shell, the National Iranian Oil Company, etc.) accountable, future generations will be left with a barely habitable planet. Also, major meat and dairy companies have become some of the world’s biggest polluters.We need a complete overhaul of our current society. Yes, please avoid plastic bags and disposable cutlery when possible, but also support organizations that work to end climate change. Share the work of researchers who study climate change. Vote for politicians who take climate change seriously (our sitting president believes climate change is a hoax). Consider consuming less meat (especially since Americans already eat too much meat and dairy than is normal or healthy). Attend a climate march. We all need to take action—we only have one planet and it is being destroyed. -- source link
