    Just don’t use products made by these corporations. It’s your choice. Stop pretending it is not.

    Edit: WELLL, maybe except Google or Apple, since it is forced on society to use smartphones, which sucks, but that’s where some government regulation could help.

        Just as I said, maybe except Android or Apple smartphones, neither of these tech companies create products which are required for a living. And there are usually some more eco-friendly alternatives in another industries as well, even if more expensive ones.

          Google controls all smartphones, Amazon controls most products that I can’t find locally, Microsoft controls all computers, even if I don’t use windows generally I still have to pay the Microsoft tax.

          Every other product I can buy like pants also come from companies that pollute, usually in China.

          The problem isn’t exclusively those companies in the pic, it’s every single one of them, those are just bigger.

          The problem is fundamentally capitalism and changing from a buying from one big company to a small one only makes so the small company now has funds to pollute more instead.
