'Reasons for apathy' #3: “It’s the government's problem”
"Climate change is a catastrophic failure by governments. But we are voters, and governments act on our behalf. Many of us are drivers, flyers, meat-eaters. Morally speaking, we can share responsibility for harms we are part of or those we fail to prevent between us. I’m not saying you (or I) should feel guilty about this unfolding global disaster, but we should feel ashamed. We should act."
* Elizabeth Cripps is a writer and moral philosopher at the University of Edinburgh, and author of What Climate Justice Means and Why We Should Care ([link removed])

In a new ABC News/Washington Post poll, however, Americans split, 45-49%, on whether it's "an urgent problem that requires immediate government action" or "a longer-term problem that requires more study" first. (Five percent volunteer that it's not a problem.) Views that it's urgent are 8 percentage points off their peak, 53%, in 2018." - ABC News Continue reading ([link removed]) . ([link removed])
