    If you think we all ought to reduce our pollution down to sustainable levels, and you haven’t, then aren’t we both hypocrites?

    I’ve been very clear about my point: we’re all responsible and we should all make an effort. I even outright told you that you don’t have to do everything at once, but grab the low hanging fruit.

    And you’re trying to tell me i’m suggesting you get yourself down to a sustainable level.

    This purity testing and infighting are exactly what big oil wants.

    Yes, clearly saying you share some of the responsibility and we should all make an effort to do something, i’m requiring purity.

    You can argue my point, do you’re mindlessly attacking a strawman youve made up about me.

    And who said anything about anyone not being able to offer up other solutions? Lol

    Again, anything to avoid accepting any responsibility, doesn’t even matter if it’s even based on reality at all. You need me to be a bad guy because otherwise you might have to admit I have a point.

      Every time climate discussion comes up and i point out that we can do things to decrease their own impact

      Yes, clearly saying you share some of the responsibility and we should all make an effort to do something, i’m requiring purity.

      This but not sarcastic. Every time you bring it up is a distraction from collective action that works. Your efforts have been diverted.

      100% honestly, you sound like a great person. But that shouldn’t matter to the validity of a person’s arguments, and your approach is counterproductive.
