Yes, but how do you make businesses accountable? Legislation perhaps? Who's going to vote for those? Perhaps if we could educate people to care, but as I said we're already trying that.

On a individual basis, I guess bringing up the issue more often is the best we can do really, I would definitely appreciate more environmentalism in politics discussions, but it feels very low-impact.



> how do you make businesses accountable?

Well, to whom are businesses accountable currently? Shareholders.

Naive solution: make impacted communities shareholders.
