"If everyone just" stood in front of the storm, they'd all get blown over, and the storm would go on.
No one wants to hear that individual heroics aren't the answer, but they aren't. Our moral intuition fails on problems bigger than it's meant for.
One person, out of hundreds, working in a factory that makes a slightly cheaper widget, that changes a BOM, that drives a different industry to swap one process for another, that forces other factories to move, that changes water use and heat flow in a region, that nudges weather systems out of a regime that favors storms, is doing more to stop the storm than any hundred people standing in the wind.
The person washing windows at a lab that figures out how any of those steps might be connected doesn't get to be a hero, and doesn't feel righteous for fighting, but they're fighting, while the people who choose feeling righteous aren't.
