Sorry to say, but many can barely afford rent and the bills, let alone even imagine trying to go out of their way to fix the climate.

There are many things you can do to "fix the climate" while not spending more money. Often times it even costs less money.

Buy an electric car you say?

No I did not say. But you could buy something that's NOT unnecessarily large and inefficient, and it would SAVE you money, but many poor people still seem to find money for gas guzzling trucks and SUVs.

You could also ride a bike or ebikes or any number of new e-mobility solutions, or even use the 2 feet you were born with (depending on your exact circumstances).
