These companies exist and pollute because people are buying what they sell.

No. They exist because people buy what they sell. They pollute because they lack meaningful regulations on their practices.

If nobody buys from a polluting company, they die. Or adapt, but usually they die.

Be responsible for your own actions.

And everyone knows that there is always another option. There are no monopolies in this or any country and there's always an alternative to your electricity, your food, etc. It must be so nice for you to live in a world with such a plethora of choice!
