Which is a false affirming argument for far too long that genZ are crutching at. Boomers were born 1946 so they could only start voting 1966 during Lyndon Baines Johnson a democrat . So Whatever your grandma voted for back in 1960 doesn’t matter. There were many voters and presidents since 1960. Besides all that : Industrial Revolution started well before that in the 1700s.
Shell is currently releasing pure death into the air and water (biggest oil spill 2010 - Barack Obama was a voted in president at this time ) and nestle charges for water use (flint water disaster 2014 - - Barack Obama was a voted in president at this time) baby formula was 1974 - (Richard Nixon ) and dupont released c8 into water supply in 1984. - (Ronald Reagan).
And any of this could have been reversed any time in the past 60 years (even the last 15). The boomers clearly weren’t the sole doomers of this planet. Heck, they aren’t even the generation who invented it. The amount of damage they could have done is no more effective than anyone else who came after them clambering for the $ and convenience build on a society catered to exactly that.
