    I can relate to the people who frustrate you with their apathy. Some people don’t want to face major issues like the environment because it’s easier to focus on the short-term, which really does present enough problems for some people. It’s like how some people don’t want to think too much about poverty in the Third World. If it’s an effort just to compete in the rat race, you don’t have the luxury of considering these issues at length, let alone doing something about it. Another aspect is that people do not believe they have the influence to make a real difference on these issues, because the decisions are made at much higher levels (i.e. top management of multinational companies and high levels of government). I can see these seem like weak excuses, but I think when these problems start to affect people’s lives more directly they will do something about it (and hopefully, it won’t be too late).
