Genuine question.

What can I, an average Joe, do about global warming?

I compost, grow a lot of my own food, recycle, avoid plastic as much as possible, built a little solar system along my fence that powers probably 20% of the house.

I feel like I do a lot more than the average person and still know it’s not enough. Even if every consumer did their part would it be enough to counteract the pollution from the conglomerates? It doesn’t feel like it.

I’ve noticed that I get the same amount of work done working 5 days a week as if I plan to only work 3/4 days and know I’ll have some free time to enjoy life. My work is really project based so as long as it gets done no one cares.

My wife has also noticed that I’m a lot more stressed when I work 5 days a week and need pretty much the whole weekend to recover.

Cutting a piece of your baby’s junk off for no other reason then everyone does it is a really weird thing that I’ve never been able to wrap my head around.

I’m not religious but I at least can understand if it’s for religious reason, there’s a point to it, even if I don’t agree with/understand the point. But people seem to just do it for no reason aside from it’s what people do. It’s forced genital mutilation anyway you look at it.
