    It would take millions, if not billions of people to band together and make drastic changes for there to be any measurable difference. The largest offenders are all mega corporations that simply put quarterly profits over ensuring their impact on the planet is minimal. Without those corporations changing their business models permanently, no individuals lifestyle choices will ever matter more than a small fraction of a percentage point.

      Amazingly, we already have social institutions to enable groups of millions to billions to change the rules of society. They’re called governments. Get control over one (ideally through an electoral process in countries where that’s available) and you can change policy.
