And they are just burning that shit into nothing for no reason. Not my fault the world is burning, it's the evil corps forcing us to buy shit.

I mean... I'll contribute and do my part because I do care, and that's the type of person I am, but we do need regulation in place for the top contributors to global warming and pollution, which are corporations and celebrities.

Plus, it's bullshit to say that you should take a bus or train or bike or whatever instead of a car when you have disgusting car-centric infrastructure that forces you to drive.

I'd be happy to switch to a smart thermostat if they weren't all so privacy-invading. Nest, the most popular one, is owned by Google, and there's no Google in my home. I'm completely deGoogled and will keep it that way.

So I replaced my car with a train, but now it doesn't fit in my garage. Am I doing this wrong?

Okay great, if I live anywhere besides NYC, where's my damn train for transport? Oh right its nonexistent. I'd love to take a train but the people that run this shithole say its too expensive and continue to pave more roads! Wow I love living here where my government continues to listen to big oil and destroy the planet in the process!!

I look up train routes (and sometimes bus)everytime I'm going more than 80 miles or so. Guess how many times I've found one that will get me where I'm going? I'll give you a hint, it's zero.

This is one of the most shittiest takes I've ever seen, trying to absolve oneselves of taking responsibility.

Yeah, there are those companies that produce the bad shit but this tweet is right. If you stop eating meat, the companies that produce meat will produce less of it and there will be a real impact.

I don't know what the fuck the OP is thinking. Like, do they think that the corporations just produce pollution for fun? No, it's because you buy that shit. If you stop buying that shit, pollution will go down. CNN was 100% right and that fucker that responded is retarded at best, but probably just braindead because what he posted doesn't make sense at all.

Bro the big oil corporations spent decades at the beginning of the 20th century creating and forcing the demand and dependency on oil. Watch “How Big Oil Conquered the World” from James Corbett.

It’s not like WE chose this to be the way things are. The people who control industry, and marketing, and media and THE GOVERNMENT, all MADE us and it all this way.
