Isn’t that what companies do? They operate a larger scale thing than what we can do as individuals, and pass the cost on to us as consumers?
Up until now the cost of having a working environment has been calculated as free, so they are greatly resistant to adding more costs onto their business plan.
And there’s no point in pointing at families flying around or people buying objects in plastic and saying ‘U FUCKERS ARE KILLJNG THE EARTH’ because for a lot of people there just isn’t an alternative because that’s all that the system offers where they live. But demonstrations like Extinction are pointing out that there is a large amount of people who do want an alternative, and are concerned enough about it to do something drastic.
