Sorry but this is so incorrect on so many levels. I was expecting some big examples but as soon as you kicked off with shopping receipts.... Where I live they are not printed if you don't need one. A very simple fix. Every individual consumer CAN and DOES make a difference. Here in the UK the stores are FULL of plant-based foods. Even Burger King has opened a vegan-only branch. Why? Consumer demand. And the most important thing about taking individual action? The MINDSET. If more and more people start choosing greener alternatives to every product and service they buy, mass change happens. It is already happening.
