Stop trying to make regular people guilty about having cold drinks while billionaires burn entire forests
that's not the point at all. the point is if you want cold drinks there are better options that will even save you money in the long run.
You're being rightfully downvoted into oblivion for bringing up this argument when it doesn't apply, but I'll elaborate:
I don't know if you even clicked on the video or not, but this isn't "making regular people feel guilty about having cold drinks"; it's informing them that manufacturers are lying to them to make them feel guilty about having cold drinks and telling them to buy their garbage trinkets instead. This video is doing the literal exact opposite of what you're accusing, even discounting the fact that your argument is often brought up speciously to stifle calls for personal change when you feel like it even marginally encroaches on a convenience that you obtain by mortgaging the Earth's climate.
You can have cold drinks, just don't buy these products to cool them.
I've got a cooler and an ice pack, cost $5 from a thrift store and keeps my shit cold for a whole day
Why do you want cold shit?
It's for when someone walks in thinking they're all hot shit. You give them the cold shit to bring them to room-temperature shit.
Just because you want it to be hot back there doesn’t mean we all do.
Stinks less.
You put it in a tube sock cold. You can whip it through a window, and then it will slowly warm up throughout the day and smell fucking awful. Do this to people you hate while they're at work.
