producing, monopolizing distribution and advertising the shit out of all meat
silently funding and promoting the nimby groups
opposing clean energy projects as it hurts their dividend payments from energy stocks
opposing public transit to sell more vehicles and maintenance requirements for roads and vehicles
buying up single family housing and making them overpriced rental units
lobbying to prevent multiple dwellings on single plots to force more people into rentals

Don't go giving them a free pass.

To quote myself from two minutes ago

The people at the top carry a vast majority of the blame

Yup, sure sounds like a free pass to me.

My only point is that the people at the top being the worst doesn't absolve the rest of us of our own choices.

It is a free pass. All the things you said they weren't guilty of, they are the driving force behind all of the consumption. Except maybe the air conditioning thing. That is just dumb. 75 is perfect for ac.
