Emotions Prevent Us From Taking Action on Climate Change

Every day that we are fooled into thinking that climate change is a problem caused by and solvable by individuals is another day we fail to move towards coordinated action from our government.

 

The idea that climate change should be dealt with at an individual level makes no sense. Even if 10 million people go totally carbon neutral, climate change would continue its ruthless forward march.

 

Guilt about climate change is counter-productive. In order to avoid feeling guilty, we avoid thinking about climate change, the increasing severity of weather, and what life will be like for our children and grandchildren. 

We fail to demand action from our government and 
overlook the failure of our leaders because we are busy blaming ourselves.- LINK
