It would take millions, if not billions of people to band together and make drastic changes for there to be any measurable difference. The largest offenders are all mega corporations that simply put quarterly profits over ensuring their impact on the planet is minimal.

Amazingly, we already have social institutions to enable groups of millions to billions to change the rules of society. They’re called governments. Get control over one (ideally through an electoral process in countries where that’s available) and you can change policy.
We’re not helpless though. We each have a tiny bit of influence, and put our thumbs of the scale of what human decisions are.

Capitalism will go fascist before they let us take away their money making machine. What you’re talking about is revolutionary. Inshallah!
