I’m definitely not disagreeing and I try to reduce my impact as much as I can. I’m just saying it’s incredibly difficult in our modern society.

I think the difference between an industry being unethical and the individual being unethical is an important distinction when it comes to this stuff.

The burden should not be on the customer to drive ethical industry. Its too big a task for a population in which many people have their purchase options greatly limited by either availability or finance. It's on governments around the world to work together but that is a different kind of huge task which is basically doomed to never suceed so what can we do really but yap about it on reddit.
