ABSTRACT
If this section had a slogan, it would pinch that of the supermarket Tesco: ‘Every little helps’. Its purpose is to help you handle the argument that unsustainable development is globally so advanced that local contributions are pointless. Compared to the US or China, the UK’s emissions are tiny, so why bother when the big countries don’t? What difference will it make if I turn off the lights or you use a bicycle when those around us don’t?
