This just shows that the whole “muh, it is the corporations fault for the climate emergency, there is nothing I can do about it!” is a load of BS. You can vote with your wallet. Become anti-consumption.
That’s an incredibly naive and misinformed opinion you’ve got there. Most of the companies polluting are not businesses that members of the public buy services from. The vast majority of the largest polluters are business to business providers, Joe public can’t do anything about that.
Just look up Monsanto, if we took them out the total pollution worldwide would probably drop by about 50% but they sell to farmers, so you might say well don’t buy from farmers that buy from Monsanto but the problem is all farmers buy from Monsanto, so there isn’t another option.
It takes two to tango, they say. Corporations have a lot more wallet to vote with, as it were - but we are not powerless or blameless when we support them out of complacency.
I was trying to buy food that wasn’t covered in plastic. I don’t have an option. I have looked for butchers, bakers and general food items that sell without plastic wrapping and it just isn’t feasible.

What a terribly stupid and wrong take.
But I’m hungry for climate
You can have your climate after you’ve eaten your short range weather patterns young man
