The environment including land, sea, air, plants, animals, etc.

It's 2019 and were still polluting the Earth. That should be the one thing humanity unites against. If that cannot bring us together, what are we waiting for alien invasion

Like why not pay people to clean up the environment

Anyone alive right now will very likely be dead before it becomes catastrophic. Aka, it doesn't directly impact them, so they don't give a shit.

That makes it hard for the people that want the change to happen.

I'm not being snarky. I think we've lost decades of progress on this because we refuse to form plans and tactics that are more economically positive for those being asked to put up the cash now or make career and lifestyle changes. But that requires paying for that, so we fell back on hysterics and insults trying to guilt people into doing what we want for nothing.

Well I feel like incentive is better than hoping people be responsible. I mean I wish we could do that. But so many believe this isn't our generation's problem.
