oh, so it's all the global poor who are coordinating their efforts to reduce emissions of companies they don't own or operate?
thanks for clearing that up!

When the choice is find some way to stay entertained without taking quarterly vacations on CO2 generating flights to expensive getaways or keep polluting somehow no one bats an eyelid.
A yearly salary of something like 32k puts you in the global 1% of earners. I won't be so strict about the definition of the rich, but families having money for cruises are definitely part of the demographic I'm speaking to.
And I mean, vacations is are just the tip of the iceberg, those people so poor they have to use firewood go survive, aren't the reason we have so many commercial airliners shuttling around goods so we can have the latest throwaway item we desire in 48hrs or less.
Your firewood analogies are sensetionalist but do not answer my question of how even if western civilization vanished over night climate change would be resolved? Perhaps delayed by a few decades. I would even say it might get worse due to undeveloped countries desire to compete with minimal costs and inability to create nuclear power or afford wind turbine farms,solar,etc... When oil,charcol and old cars are already affordable.
And my firewood "analogy" is sensationalist?
Is that a joke or are you just that out of touch with the reality of the actual poor.
My parents grew up in those conditions, and even as recently as the last few years we've had family members back home in that situation.

Your second paragraph is non sequitur. You didn't ask that question or even imply it!
If your point of your screed there is climate change is not worth fighting, it's not a unique viewpoint.
What a terrible thing if we were to come up with less polluting ways of living for no real benefit huh?
