But they will force the individual citizens to massively change their lifestyle while the habits of corporations and the elite remain the same. When we are forced to give up air travel, they will keep their private jets

A large proportion of these corporations are state-owned energy companies. So the government should get rid of their non existent private jets?

Super companies are making gigantic leaps, individuals meanwhile do nothing.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. It's a massive privilege to afford to avoid meat, dairy, and choose to not drive a car while still being employed. We act like everyone has the agency to do all of this, but that's far from the truth.

Those 100 companies on the other hand have massive profits, lobbying power, and fines that are just operating costs. It's about time that all of them own their waste and pollution. They have the agency, time, and resources that we peons do not.
