I don't really see those things as an alternative to "going about your day normally".
What I read that statement in the meme as is an indictment of everyone who doesn't drop everything and spend all their energy trying to solve that problem. Which, frankly, is a luxury not available to most people. Most working class people would starve (or at the very least, lose a lot of what little power they do have) in short order if they stop doing their day-to-day activities.
If that's not what was intended by the meme, it's worded very poorly. It should be more clear in what it is calling out because as it is, it could easily be applied to basically everyone.
