Carbon footprint: Who’s to Blame?

Silvia_TC

It is a proven fact that the average person produces less carbon emissions than the average successful corporation. When we step back and acknowledge this, it's important to ask the question of who's to blame. 

While it is important to hold yourself accountable for your carbon footprint, we should not ignore the fact that the majority of carbon emissions aren’t coming from individuals themselves, but from big corporations. We should not turn a blind eye to this and we should hold these companies more accountable, and more focused should be directed towards them in the carbon footprint conversation.

I totally agree with this. While it is important to be self aware of you own carbon emissions, one individual contributes hardly anything compared to big companies and corporations. I still believe that peoples personal emissions are way higher than they should be, yet big companies that are emitting exponentially more carbon should be held much more accountable than the average person. I believe that large, successful companies should have more rules that regulate their emissions and make their companies more efficient, because at the end of the day, they are the ones with the biggest impact on our collective carbon footprint.
