You're not wrong, but to be fair have you ever managed to persuade a billion odd people to have less for the betterment or the other 7 billion and themselves?

It's less than that. Closer to a few thousand, IIRC.

Each person capable of reading this post contributes above our earths carrying capacity and support fossil fuel exploitation, exploitative mining and environmental degradation just by owning electronic goods.

We are also well above where we should be. Billionaires use our lifetime of carbon emissions nearly daily, but we do the same compared to 3rd world countries we also dump our waste on.
