I definitely do not think people taking personal responsibility is the solution. Quite the opposite. I believe the only way it top-down enforcement of cutbacks for everyone. A giant reset button. I simply don't think we have the ability to do that. COVID was a nice try but we couldn't resist going back to "normal".

Buying an EV is a no-op that makes people feel good for sacrificing nothing. You need to get a bicycle instead.

I like the idea of a system that rewards people for doing the right thing. I'd like it even more if such a system existed.
