Not my OC but what I've believed for years: there's no conflict between reducing your own environmental impact and holding corporations responsible. We hold corps responsible for the environment by creating a societal ethos of environmental responsibility that forces corporations to serve the people's needs or go bankrupt or be outlawed. And anyone who feels that kind of ethos will reduce their own environmental impact because it's the right thing to do.

Thoughts?

I don't believe that we can defeat polluting corporations by not buying their products simply because we can't completely buying products - many people aren't in positions to be choosy and often the same companies own the "good" product that do the bad. We need the support of the government to be able to influence these giant corporations with regulations and taxes on pollution
