Anyone with a brain can recognize how we won’t stop burning fossil fuels until it’s no longer economical. This is the result of greed, plain and simple.

It’s an “everyone” issue because we’re all in on it. If you didn’t forego directly using fossil fuels, you’re part of the problem. If you don’t want to acknowledge you’re part of the problem, you’re part of the problem.
