I don't think these protest are peaceful.
I think they are downright provocative and dangerous.
Education and reasoning are the only way to make changes.
People are stubborn. Telling them to do something they don't believe in, will not work.
I just switched to an electric car. Not because Greta Thundacunt told me to.
Because they finally become an affordable alternative to my ICE car. It also makes more sense for the kind of use and mileage we do.
You cannot just ban something because it doesn't affect you personally, and because you believe it's right.
You have to give people realistic alternatives.
I do understand the chicken and the egg principle though. Without some restrictions, people would never go green.
Early adopters have been rinsed with early solar panels and EV's. The same with heat pumps for heating a house.
But eventually, technology gets there and can offer a better way for less money.
Now can we get back to paper straws. Another invention that was forced upon before it was ready!
Great post mate.
