As ordinary citizens, there is little we can do about climate change

Wrong premise. You've already surrendered before the fight starts. Individual choices—what you eat, buy, drive—ripple through markets and shift demand. That's power. Why would you hand it away so easily?

Small changes like what we eat is like trying to take out a forest fire with a squirt gun. The impactful methods like eco-living are expensive and not everyone can afford.

You're contradicting yourself. You say individuals are powerless, then admit the real barrier is money, not capability. That's a system problem, not a you problem. So which is it—are you powerless, or just broke? Because those demand different solutions.
