Funny how every time somebody mentions "reducing consumption" people jump into comments to insist, no, reducing personal consumption is a scam, only political action matters, keep buying everything you want.
It's like people making a personal choice to reduce consumption is a threat to someone. Probably someone who manufactures the stuff we consume.
Look. Corporations aren't scared of political environmental action in the West. They've bought the politicians, they control the levers of power, they're confident they'll win the political fight. What corporations worry about is people buying less shit and reducing their profits, which will take away the money they need to buy politicians and win the political fight.
The personal is political.
