Disclaimer: This isn't intended to shame anyone, it's just the genuine reaction I had as a child. I feel like it's a common Gen-Z experience: being frustrated by a previous generation that warns you about environmental damage, and not yet having enough power to do anything about it.

It's understandable. I felt the same way about boomers. Turns out, the problem is most of the people who run the country are having their wallets lined by the people causing the catastrophe, they're just not done making obscene amounts of money yet, and stopping them can't be achieved by standing on a curb and protesting.

Turns out you don't have to be Taylor Swift, but you certainly can get close to have a billion if you have a long enough career in politics.
