Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

I still don't have access to good (more than 100Mbps) reliable internet service and as a consumer can do nothing to change that, how am I supposed to be able to expect a new electric vehicle fast charger in my area to cut back my emissions? Also that where I live I have no access to public transit, and am forced to drive everywhere.
I didn't say you had much control, or are.the root of the problem. But all of us have skin in the game when we consume products that cause global warming.
Things like eating beef, using gas, using plastic products. I'm not saying you have an alternative, but nobody other than you is using the gas that you're using.
The separate, bigger part of the equation is the corruption.
But if you admit that there are no alternatives then one more step down the chain would be to blame, ie the companies producing, and not providing alternatives... You're so close and keep making points against what you then say is your conclusion.
