Perhaps you'd feel a stronger group identity if you were part of an oppressed minority? In your own case, your nation has an evil colonial history, and it's rich enough to just carry on raising the sea walls. I see a strong group identity in slavery reparation meetings and marches. I always attend, the meetings are at the end of my street. There are never any banners or speeches or leaflets or posters about ecocide. But there should be, and the demands for reparations should be doubled or tripled. The reparations for slavery campaign is really starting to pay off. Let's add ecocide to it. Ater all, the UK's coal mining makes it the birthplace of the climate emergency.
