"A majority of people are for climate protection, still nothing gets done. Why?"
Newspapers ask the darnedest questions. Here's why..
1.) Climate action entails less consumption. FAR LESS consumption. Not consuming is deadly for capitalism.
They will sell you every bogus solution under the sun but all of these will make you keep consuming. This will lead to the extraction AND exploitation of resources and labour. The best capitalism will ever do is delay the collapse either temporarily or locally.
Capitalism CANNOT solve this issue.
And our capitalist overlords KNOW this.
That's why they chug either bullshit solutions or (culture) wars your way. It's a distraction.
So, first of all you finally have to get it into your head that saving the planet means toppling capitalism and subsequently means fighting fascists. These three things are linked. Details may vary. Sometimes it is murky but these three things make the world's ugliest threesome since I kissed both Fülber-twins on one evening in 5th grade.
2.) This necessary fight and transformation will and can come only at the price of your comfort zones. Replacing plastic straws at fast food restaurants is neat but that's not what's needed.
You cannot just be in favour of measures to save the planet, save humanity. You'll have to, on some level, fight for it.
