And most people would be happy with them switching to more green production methods.
Like Shell, yes we need power so stopping oil production all at once is a bad idea. But they’ve known about climate change for 40+ years. And instead of adapting to green energy, they campaigned and scare mongered against it.
It’s much easier to regulate 100 companies than 8 billion people.
Yes we need to regulate industries. But you can regulate the meat industry all you want, as long as we consume that much meat it will be a problem.
The “Ok but companies…” people throw around every time we talk about personal responsability is only used to ignore that responsability. And I think meat consumption is the best example because everyone can stop eating meat. It’s cheaper and does not require any particular effort.
Tbh, like most changes in history. Government’s need to regulate it. The smoking bans, the little recycling laws we have now, emission targets/laws.
Certain industries can change to reduce emissions, others, like meat, will eventually get outright banned and it’s the only real way we’ll ever reduce meat consumption.
