This is a by-product of modern society (maybe late stage capitalism). We need to be sold a "solution" to a problem. Reducing consumption is not something that can easily be sold hence these carbon capture, recycling plastic "solutions".
Unless someone can make money off of it, reducing emissions is going to be difficult.
Imagine if you could get FREE MONEY by not using all your energy coinz!
