This will be wildly unpopular because most people back then would argue against me about this and most still do but here goes. The only one you can blame about these heatwaves are yourselves. For years no decades even we climate activists tried and tried again to get your attention. We protested we voted we cried for help. When they were at the end of their rope they even protested by risking their lives and glueing themselves to the streets so someone would just listen. But 80% of people would just call them crazy, laugh at them. And double down saying there’s no issue. Giving up meat? Are you insane only p***ies eat vegan. What my car? No i need my car that just sits in a garage 99% of the day and only gets used to get to and from work. Greta Thunberg? Yea she’s probably a paid actor and her parents blablabla. I can’t speak for other protestors but i gave up a few years ago. Ordered some ACs and just figured I’ll let the ignorant deal with it cause i was sick and tired of being ridiculed about how we need to change. And we needed change now. I hope everyone who even just once made fun of vegans or of Friday for future protesters sleeps in a 30°+ room every night. You all deserve no comfort at all and this is all your fault. Instead of taking a shred of accountability and having a look at your actions and where the world is heading you rather just blame the kids fighting for their future. Ridiculous and thanks for leaving the world behind worse than you found it. Our generation is gona suffer so much because of your comfortability. Everyone keeps saying the rich need to change first or that Switzerland is tiny. But guess what. On the world stage Switzerland is the rich one. We need to lead by example and change from the top down to show others that the rich are trying. We can’t expect countries like Philippines or libya to change first. How could we they say the same as most of you do “the rich should be the ones to change first”. Habe fertig. Before anyone comes at me I’ve been vegan for 10 years now and use the train to go everywhere even internationally. If any of you actually care for your kids and i mean actually love and care for them you’ll vote according to whats best for the climate in the next vote and if you don’t well you obviously only care for yourself. If anyone wants to actually discuss objectively I’m open but i won’t be answering any strawman arguments I’m sick of them. submitted by /u/itsinvincible
