I mean I'd say organizing to overthrow the socioeconomic system causing climate change is the most productive thing you can do but I suppose that does involve taking to people yes.

It’s not the system it’s the corporations. The government telling coke and Pepsi to stop using plastic would do more for climate change and the environment in a month than if everyone recycled all plastics forever

It's many things coming together.

It's governments not regulating properly, capitalism demanding infinite growth, and consumers mindlessly consuming which creates demand.

There's lots of avenues for change, and we should follow all of them at the same time.
