The more I see reports like this the more, hopeless I feel. Sometimes, I get to a point where I’m not even depressed but deeply numb by the catastrophe that is happening. Mass insanity we see, mass insanity.

    My knee jerk reaction to this has always been to say that these individual actions are inconsequential compared to what mega corporations and multinational companies are doing to pump the majority of pollution into our environment.

    But I no longer think that … I think you are correct.

    If we all collectively did this … If we all or the majority of us followed through with everything you suggested, it would have a major effect with the economy … if it has an effect on the economy it would affect corporations … and if it affects corporations, they lose power and are forced to produce less or even die off.

    Corporations exist because of our small collective contributions … the things we buy, the services we purchase, the things we consume … if we collectively stop doing all that or cut it down significantly, it would starve the beast. In an economy of perpetual growth, even just a tiny dip caused by less consumption would be enough to destabilize a major corporation.

    If we all just simply bought less or just ate less … it would kill off so many useless corporations.

    I’ve come around to your logic and I eat less, consume less and completely avoid fast food.
