Because even if all individuals stopped polluting today magically, it still wouldn’t be enough.

Over 8 Billion individuals not polluting the environment wouldn't change anything?

You seem to be holding everyone but the organizations that are actually polluting.

Tell me more about how multi billion dollar organizations can exist without a customer base. I am all ears on this one.

So you honestly believe the largest polluters will just stop polluting if consumers change habits?

Because like I cited, the vast majority of pollution comes from corporations. Not people.

Yes I do. Can you explain how I was some how unclear? This will be to my benefit in the future because I really do not know how I could have been more explicit.

Corporation literally means "Group of people". Your citation is worthless to your argument because it ignores that fact, which also supports my point. Thank you for that and have a wonderful day.

A) I thought it was up to individuals not groups.

B) we can’t even get people to agree the earth is round. You really expect to be able to change individual habits?

Go argue for the sake of it elsewhere and come back when you have a real point to make.
