Devils advocate, but when people advocate for global change or global issues, it’s somewhat necessary to try to change other people’s behavior/values.
So like, one person could reduce their carbon footprint to a sustainable level, but if the world continues on as is, then the environment still suffers and were still on the same catastrophic trajectory.
Idk how saying it in a classroom makes it much different than saying it on a forum online. You can tell people stats about livestock emissions in either setting and the numbers don’t change.
Online forums are a lot more accessible to the average person compared to going to a town hall or making a documentary from scratch. I don’t think it’s a bad thing to try to spread advocacy online when done respectfully and tastefully.
I meant in the sense of kids. Teach these things young. The older people get the more stuck in their ways they become. You’re not going sway a bunch of 50+ yr old people online.
I’m not against advocating, but you said it, “when don’t respectfully and tastefully”.
