Critics mock climate advice that blames individual habits

Original: Your shower is the problem, apparently. Not the 47 private jets in the sky. 💀 # Capitalism # AntiCapitalism # ClimateCha

A sarcastic post attacking climate messaging that focuses on individual consumer behaviour, such as taking shorter showers, while ignoring the outsized emissions of the wealthy, is circulating widely. The jab at private jets taps into a broader debate over whether responsibility for the climate crisis lies with personal choices or with corporations and rich elites, a theme resonating with anti-capitalist audiences.

Why now: Frustration over rich people's disproportionate emissions and finger-pointing at ordinary consumers keeps fueling this debate
