Anyone who believes this isn't true has jelly and custard between their ears.
Chips are "Plant-based" no matter how you cook them
Donald Trump needs kicking out of a helicopter

"Take these three items, some WD-40, a vise grip, and a roll of duct tape. Any man worth his salt can fix almost any problem with this stuff alone." - Walt Kowalski
"Only two things are infinite - the universe, and human stupidity. And I'm not sure about the universe." - Albert Einstein
Plus us the countries on the rise developmentally Brazil, Indonesia, Malaysia etcwill be expanding their use of resources.
I also think while denying man is partly responsible is nuts it’s also true that scientists do not know how much is from man and how much is part of the cycles of the earth.
If the situation is at the very bad end of the scientific predictions, then massive changes are required, far in excess of what China, India, USA will tolerate, and far in excess of what ordinary people will tolerate.
As another wise man once said "Be careful what you wish for".
Do the half test. Would you accept everything you consume being rationed so you only got half of what you consume today?
So you and your family would be rationed to half the food you buy today, half the water, half the electricity, half the internet time, half the media (12 hours dead time when no media can be used), half the fuel used by your vehicles, half the buses and trains, and so on, etc. Would you be ok with that if a politician and scientist swore to you that it would save the planet?
Yes?
Yes?
You can't isolate a single country's contribution to the problem any more.
I would reject that view.
others do it and I can’t easliy change their behaviour.
I think most non flat earthers would agree with the above.
Clearly the personal inconvenience of not littering is small. The personal inconvience of reducing your carbon footprint is much greater.
I have to fly for work , I have to drive for work. Many do. I cannot easily change these things without large disruption to my life, in a vacuum. So I continue to do them.
There are however other things I can do in a vacuum
which may make a difference and may set an example to my kids and others.
