you know, when we see environmentalists campaigning against climate change, we see the same old messages, you know, stop flying, don t drive a petrol or a diesel car, cut your meat consumption, etc, but what i ve never seen from a campaigner is a message about reducing our digital footprint, like send less emails or text messages, stream less tv shows or films. i personally haven t seen those sort of messages. i m wondering, ruiqi, have campaigners missed a trick here? you brought up a really great question. definitely these tips helps reduce our individual carbon footprint on our cloud or our virtual presence. maybe we should start thinking about how much tech would really need. do we really need to send that screenshot? keep that much
and so on, because we need we need to focus on the bigger picture. of course, stop flying is a way of activism to, like, send a message to people around you that we need to do something about this. that s why i stopped flying. i didn t stop flying and i didn t sail across the atlantic twice to lower my carbon footprint. it was to create a debate around itand it, yeah, it succeeded, i guess. it worked. people seem to see me as an angry teenager who condemns every individual s behaviour, which is kind of funny to me. giggles. and you re not that person? no! giggles. what s the difference between that person and who you really are? there s a big difference, erm, yeah. i m not an angry teenager. yeah, iam i probably don t take life seriously enough, like in private, yeah. don t you find it weird, then, that you have this reputation for being.? yeah, it is really funny, actually. you find it funny because why? itjust seems so untrue to you?
my mum needs to go and meet his siblings and, therefore, fly to india. yeah. my mum, she s in her 70s and she s a wonderful person, she s not going to get the train to india. no! that would be. that would be that would be weird. i don t think of my mum as privileged, but would it be right to say that, you know, people who follow you and follow your activism could infer from what you re saying that my mum shouldn t fly? no, i mean, i have neversaid that people should stop flying. i have never said that. i think that we need to move away from focusing on individual actions and what individuals do and so on, because we need we need to focus on the bigger picture. of course, stop flying is a way of activism to, like, send a message to people around you that we need to do something about this. that s why i stopped flying. i didn t stop flying and i didn t sail across the atlantic twice to lower my carbon footprint. it was to create a debate around itand it, yeah, it succeeded, i guess
