  1. There are no free lunches in economy. That is, what the "green" idiocy needs to learn. Say you go zero waste and undo the amount of wrappings. Now you need to expend time and money, to get the same things in same quantity, you got before. It's too expensive to do. You abandon it, because you can't afford it. You want everyone to jump over into EVs, which have lower range and always will have lower range, which will further decrease as the vehicle ages and which will enver be as quickly recharged, as a tank be refilled, all the while, your carbon footprint is actually the same over the lifespan of the vehicle, because you need to process more volume and more types of resources, which is done in China, because of their lax environmental regulation, because doing it environmentally friendly would result in completely unaffordable cars even to C suite executives. And that's only the EVs by them selves, not taking into consideration the amount of power, that would need to be transmitted and generated on demand, meaning it can't be done by intermittent power sources without massive overbuilding of capacity, because there is no and never will be any battery based power storage system, which could provide the capacity necessary at scale of the grid, when it will be cloudy/snowy and/or not windy enough. Hydro doesn't help here much, because there are other uses for dams, such as drinking and fire water reservoirs, tourism, agriculture... Which power generation needs to be weighted against. Vegetarianism and veganism? Yeah, now you need to strictly adhere to a diet and take supplements for those nutrients, which you can only get from meat... If you actually look into all these politically devisive things hollistically, you'll discover, that most of them are actually sold on very unrealistic expectations. So tell me, is abandoning and criticizing green ideology really nihilism? Or just accepting reality for what it is?
