    The amount of change we would all need to do is so immense I don’t think it’s fathomable.

    Me choosing not to eat meat even if I stopped completely and went vegan would not do a damn thing.

    I don’t believe the problem is a matter of personal choices, it’s a much larger scale.

    You and all your friends becoming vegan doesn’t do shit. It’s laughable.

      People engage in individual action as a means of demonstrating that collective action is possible. Nobody is expecting individual action on its own to suffice; it takes changing the rules of society so that everybody is doing the right thing.
