So I buy shrimp that was grown locally.

Then I read up that shrimps were transported to the other side of the world, peeled there, and shipped back, travelled 20,000 miles, before landong on my plate.

Let’s partner with oil companies to collectively solve carbon capture at planet scale? They get to keep functioning, citizens & government helps with subsidization and research programs.

A select subcommittee can oversee the process and politicians can coordinate partnerships with other countries.

You need BOTH the carrot AND the stick to get behaviors to change.
