  We let environmentalism become an individual issue, and that was a mistake.

  Everyone knows it’s not an individual issue, corporations are constantly buying up political shielding and support, as well as media opinions, to ensure that “the economy” remains more important than the environment and that they, the ones responsible for all the shit, don’t get regulated or properly fined and blamed.

    I don’t really agree that “everyone knows this” when everyone I know talks about environmentalism almost exclusively in terms of individual impact.
