No, but that doesn't change the fact that people in general dislike the idea of lowering their standard of living for environmental reasons.

Nobody pollutes in a vacuum, and the truth is that our emissions are the collective responsibility of all of us and not just 10 large companies or whatever the Reddit line is these days.

I agree, not in a vacuum. If everyone knew the true risks then they might re-think things. They might prioritize tech that could reduce pollution without lowering living standards.

Oil companies have worked very hard at covering up the truth, purely because a transition to cleaner tech would cost them money.

> our emissions are the collective responsibility of all of us

This reminds me of the Bugs Bunny/communism meme. My profits, our emissions.

If you pay for gas and then drive your car, both you and the oil company have benefitted from the pollution...
