If your parents were multimillionaires and hired publicists and boat crews and built a brand around those beliefs, I'm sure you would have too.
Yeah, I would have but I'm not rich or have the time so I couldn't. Good thing she's doing it.
Meanwhile I'm not rich, but I haven't commuted by car in almost 15 years. I also haven't flown a sailing crew to New York to sail a boat built by a Rothschild back across the Atlantic ocean after I finished my instagram post. So I'd say I've done less damage to the environment then she has.
Agreed. Collective action is the only solution but becoming a figurehead so that you can fly around the world going to climate conferences and taking selfies is unhelpful.
