Will we look back at today's "go green" initiatives as stupid and inadequate? - eviltoast

When I was in elementary school, the cafeteria switched to disposable plastic trays because the paper ones hurt trees. Stupid, I know… but are today’s initiatives any better?

    That’s not really what OP is saying though? They’re talking about corporate efforts to make it seems like the consumers are the problem, not them, and many are still falling for it. As long as the awareness of this is not raised and more people aren’t pointing fingers at the corporates the whole don’t buy their product is never going to be effective, same for advocating for regulations (rather, especially the regulations). You’re assuming everyone knows the root of the problem already, but that’s just not the case here.
