and our corporations in the US urge the workers to blame themselves. for this "25%" of the world's resources. They say to the American worker "You consume too much. You don't recycle enough. You don't drive a good enough vehicle. " And while that may be partly true, and there are small choices we can make to improve the state of our "carbon footprint" that is mostly bullshit to let the rich off the hook. The military is the biggest polluter. The rich consume far more than the workers. The bourgeois-run city governments refuse to invest in public transportation. They refuse to make walkable cities with mixed-use residential zones. They insist on car-centered design and suburban sprawl. They insist on a culture single-family home ownership. Bosses shame workers for not owning their own vehicle. Most of the recycling that gets picked up never actually gets recycled, it gets incinerated. If it does get recycled, the recycling process is often very destructive to the environment. The supermarkets throw out millions of tons of expired food and lock the dumpsters to keep out homeless people and price gouge. There is a refusal to reduce emissions or transition to green energy. All of the problems with America's consumption of resources are systemic, and the system is run by the bourgeoisie, and is a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. So telling people that the solution is putting out their recycling and driving a tesla is absurd.
