I think we all know rapid change is possible if the right motivators are there. Not sure how you get people and legislators to make the rapid change we need.
A few things we can do as individuals is fly less, eat less meat, drive less (where possible).
On a larger scale, write to your representatives, and vote for people who actually put climate change at the forefront of their agenda. It’s now time for us all to be really pushy.
I FEEL you. All these systems, gas powered cars, factory farms, wasteful manufacturering, it was all here when I got here. There was never a time that I have lived on this planet where it was not heating. I didn’t choose to participate in these systems, I had no other choice. I do what I can, but in the end, how much choice did I have? Did any of us have?
I completely understand the sentiment, and it is very frustrating living in the greenest way you can and it not seeminging to make a dent. But we can only really impact our circle of influence and control around us.
We have seen change on the economic level, if you look at the rise of dairy free milks a d plant based foods, 5 years ago they weren’t main stream and now they are. All we can do is try and push the small changes with our wallets and hope to see the chnage to economies. As more people talk about climate change and write to their representatives the more these issues will be pushed to the fore as politicians will see them as important.
I have no idea if any of this change will happen soon enough, but I don’t think the alternative is acceptable.

Giving up and joining in on the destruction definitely isn’t gonna help
What you’ve been doing isn’t useless, it’s what other people should also be doing.
