      ah, but you cant - and that’s exactly my point. nothing is going to change immediately.

        I think the counter-point is that you owe it to yourself to do everything in your power, or to do everything you find reasonable, to combat climate change anyway - even if things won’t change immediately. Maybe a new car isn’t immediately affordable, but a solar panel to power your electronics most certainly is. Or you could start recycling, or grow a low-water-usage or pollinator-friendly garden. But most importantly, vote for politicians that give a fuck about the environment.
