Ride a bike to help fight climate change... but worsening climate change will cause fewer people to ride bikes. (lemmy.ca)

It was a shower thought for me this morning, after having seen all these record temperatures being broken around the world.

But, if it gets too hot to cycle, then people won't. And if they aren't cycling, they may start driving again, which compounds climate change even further.

Does this worry anyone else?

Fully agreed. Part of the fixing the systemic problem includes changing individual behaviors, but that can still only be done with altering systemic structures.

"Individual responsibility" is a lie made up by the wealthy to justify their increasing theft.
