I think there's a couple of factors. One is when it comes to an issue as broad as environmentalism, I think a lot of us feel like this is somebody else's problem to solve, or we alone do not have the resources to solve for something like this. It just feels like too much of a big problem. And I think we can get caught in the idea that my impact is not going to be big enough or large enough.

So it's not going to make a difference. And I think to some degree like that might be true around things like recycling and carbon emissions.

There's a little bit of a cognitive dissonance.
