   Just an FYI: If you blame individuals (which are not #billionaires) on the #ClimateCrisis I will ask you to leave the #ClimateJustice instances. We don't do this here.

   Don't get me wrong: It's good if individuals do "their part" in tackling the climate crisis, by changing their habits and lifestyles, but blaming them, when its clearly the #capitalist system's fault is just wrong.

   Be #vegan, consume sustainably, ride your #bike, don't fly.
   There are many good reasons to do so, e.g.:
   👉 it's the right thing to do
   👉 it's healthy
   👉 you're a role-model for others
   👉 if many people do this, it slightly changes how companies act.
   👉 it fosters your awareness for the issues

   But also be aware that its a droplet on a hot stone. Non-wealthy individuals won't fix the climate with their daily choices. We have to *demand* action by the big players.
   And I don't mean blame China!
   All of us need to demand radical climate action by our governments.

   So please:
   ✊ #protest
   ✊ #strike
   ✊ #unionize
   ✊ #block
   ✊ #sabotage peacefully

   We can do this together! I know we can.
