Maybe if you're on shrooms or LSD, yeah "it's all the same if you use what they make maaaaaaan"
But only if you ignore the power dynamics behind wealth, and aren't aware of the concepts of bribery, temptation, and unlimited influence.
Or the fact that people want greener options but they are intentionally unavailable, sabotaged, prohibitively expensive (but never subsidized), or publicly demonized in media with disinformation and propaganda.
Between consumers and corporations, only one gets to call all the shots
...while the unsustainable options are, massively...
Sustainable energy is heavily subsidised in Europe. Thanks to that we have 80% renewable energy production in Austria (and buy some non-renewable energy from other countries but still, we're on a good way).
