    You existing is why those companies use that energy.

    I agree that it’s BS to put the blame on the average person’s behavior.

    But the blame is on us collectively.

    We use a lot of energy.

      Those companies are the reason that energy isn’t produced with cleaner alternatives like nuclear, wind, or solar

      Billionaires and corporations lobby governments and donate to superPACs(legal bribery) to have them promote their business interests and protect their capital.

      Infinite growth is not sustainable on a finite planet. The billionaires aren’t going to save us. Buying stuff is not going to save us. Neoliberalism and Capitalism is not going to save us.
