Good points, although quite a hard to read format. Companies do often narrow choices down substantially. Especially in terms of food, the amount of ultra processed foods available in the US is astounding, and it is a much easier choice for the family with no money to choose the unsustainable, unhealthy but easy and cheap meal. And for the people who can’t afford the luxury of real choice in where they source their food, they share much much less blame.

But it is a hard task to find someone who is willing to take the first step and reduce their environmental impact when those around them do not, when someone is told their actions have no impact, the choice and the effort and often the cost seem pointless. And maybe it is, maybe we should all give up and succumb to the climate and environmental disaster we are building up to. It will come either way now, we can’t stop it. But to take the stance that individual choices will not make a difference so why bother is selfish. We can all do our part to make the world a better place, you might not think so but it’s true. And it requires hard work and dedication. And it won’t be easy and we will face an environmental catastrophe. But we can still do our part to make this world better.

My original comment was in poor taste perhaps. I don’t mean to say that corporations take no blame, or that companies take less blame. But that we must also take some blame. Us, our parents, our grandparents all played a part in the world and we are all responsible for our own actions. Why not try and change your ways for the better, even if it is futile, at least you will have done your part.
