Best you will get is them pretending to do their part with some carbon offsetting that isn’t currently working and guilting everyone else into doing their part while making no actual sacrifices to their lifestyle that is so far beyond even the 10% richest people globally.
I get that they aren’t the only group we need to address for climate change but I will be fucked if the majority have to give up nice things while they get to fuck about with no changes when they already have way more than everybody else.
Plus there is the cost of climate change solutions, as a percentage of their wealth implementing climate friendly solutions is peanuts, whereas the bottom of the 10% is significant part of their money.
Take the UK PM, Rishi Sunak. He had a brand new pool put in for his home in his consistency. Rather than using solar heating for the pool as an eco house like Moonstone does he paid to have the grid upgraded so he could have three phase electric installed just to heat his pool. Its about £18k of electric a year to heat his pool, so hes personally added that extra demand when he could and should have been forced to chose an eco friendly option that Moonstone proves works for large UK properties.
Unless you introduce legislation that completely mandates climate friendly options as the only option they simply wont do them.
Hey listen, I know money is tight but, the people of Hawaii need your leftover scraps to put together their lives lost from the fires.
I know, I, Oprah Winfrey, literally own a large portion of the state Hawaii, but come on y’all. I worked hard for my money, you peas-- people know that. So please, donate what you can while me and Dwayne the Rock Johnson fly individual private jets somewhere to film a guilt trippy promo in a move that ultimately protects my assets.

Remember the pandemic videos about “we’re all in this together” brought to you by the same people?
Exactly, plus what little they give to such worthy causes relative to their wealth is fully tax deductible. Much like the Rocks donation to SAG.
