What am I supposed to do about this?

I don’t have an excess of money I can donate to conservation. I can email my local politician but what’s that realistically going to accomplish?

I have no power to change this, but it just makes me feel shitty.

Dismantle capitalism or end resource scarcity those are really the only options.

Far easier would be stopping the use of products made using resources that are created by this

Commonly in this case would be palm oil

Good luck with that, so long as profit exists fucking the planet over to benefit shareholders will as well.
Are you here to help fix the problem or to make everybody more depressed?
Being realistic is the first step to solving anything.
Well when you can realistically get rid of profiting, let me know.
