What kind of vehicle do you think usually pulls up to a loading dock?

Grocery stores inside cities do not have loading docks. Their goods are typically delivered by this type of vehicle to curb-side offloading sites during off-peak hours.

18 wheelers are not last mile delivery vehicles and have no business being in cities to begin with.

Also you’re last sentence is quite hostile, BP definitely came up with it to avoid their responsibility and pivot it to other people. The idea might not be ‘bad’ per se, but if you do it so to avoid your own responsibility, it is definitely bad practice (which, again, is why each of us should try to limit our carbon emissions)

Of course. By the same token, individuals trying to avoid their own responsibility by parroting "big oil invented the idea of a carbon footprint" is definitely bad practice.

Myself and 50,000 other people could start walking everywhere and it very likely wouldn’t come close to offsetting the emissions of Amazon’s fleet of trucks.

Not if you keep ordering shit from amazon it won't. It will prevent 50,000 people's worth of transportation emissions, though.

Don't sell yourself short. You're more responsible for the situation than you want to admit.

there’s a very small group of individuals called billionaires that contribute 1000x more than you or I ever could.

Wrong. The top 0.1% pollute 10x as much (per capita) as the top 10% (excluding the top 0.1%). Source

BP invented the idea of the individual carbon footprint.

If the strongest argument against an idea is "the wrong people came up with it", the idea is probably pretty good.

What is a gif keyboard? What's wrong with copy and pasting from ~/Pictures/memes/?

(Yes, I realize my old is showing)

Do you not understand what the word "restrict" means?

Is it using chatgpt as a backend, like most so called chatgpt "alternatives"? If so, it will get banned soon enough.

If not, it seems extremely impressive, and extremely costly to create. I wonder who's behind it, in that case.

Reminder that 100% of those 100 corporations are fuel producers, and the 71% figure is based on counting all emissions from all the fuel they produce as theirs.

This take is as smooth brained as blaming gun violence on the largest firearm manufacturers.

Fuck is a bluesky? Just post them here already.

"Faster than expected."

1. Visibility. Targeting widely broadcasted events increases exposure of the cause.
2. Disruption: Ever heard of bread and circuses? Disrupting the circus rouses the general public, and a roused public is preferable to complacent one even if they are roused against the protestors themselves.
3. Pressure: Eventually, 2. forces the ruling class to take action. Again, even if the action is to silence or persecute the protestors it still serves to highlight the issue.
4. Symbolism: Shit is not fine. Most people want to pretend it is, and this kind of event is part of the illusion. Pulling aside the curtain is the right thing to do.

Everyone knows protests are only effective if they don't inconvenience anyone. Ideally, climate activism should be conducted from the inside of one's closet. That's how real change happens!
