You say that like many of us haven’t already been doing those things.

Some of us might be doing these things, but the vast majority aren't.

Heck, the most significant thing we can do as individuals is to adopt a plant-based diet, yet less than 1% of us do.

The "big players", assuming you are talking about industry, are only motivated by one thing: money. We, as individuals, can choose where to spend our money and influence how they do business.

Do we need to strengthen regulations? Of course. Should we force companies to cut their carbon emissions? Yes.

But at the end of the day, these companies will only do what makes them more money, including skirting these rules. Even at the risk of a small fine, which is always less than the revenue generated by skirting the rules, these companies will always seek profit over doing what's right.
