Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.
Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Sticking your head in the sand doesn’t absolve you of guilt. Inaction is a choice. Self-sacrifice is the correct action in many cases even if you aren’t the reason things have gone wrong. Looking away from problems that benefit you is not somehow neutral, it is tacit approval of the bad actors.
Hey this kinda sounds how we are just allowing the planet to boil without taking action against those nasty capitalist petro assholes

“My opinion of what is important is more important that anyone’s personal experiences.” I agree the world getting hotter is critical. I do not believe it is the only critical issue we face. For this reason, it’s good if these problems are delegated to the people who can deal with them most effectively instead of ragging on everyone that they just don’t care like they should.
I think this is actually the popular opinion. I believe that no one person can deal with every single issue the world has, and it’s not selfish to choose what actions you do take to help the world. Not everyone can put the energy in to save the dolphins. But if that’s your calling, you should go for it, and not judge someone for not putting the same level of energy in as you. It’s not hiding your head, it’s focusing your energy to be more effective. Passion is needed to make the change needed. It’s okay to choose your battles.

Either I understand you and don’t agree, or I don’t understand you and therefore you don’t know where I stand on this topic, so you don’t know how far apart we stand. What part do you think I don’t understand, or would you rather dismiss me?

My message was to someone else. I’m guessing it was deleted or something, I don’t know. I’m very new here. I can see why it would appear rude, so if it matters I’m sorry about that. I’m not sure how I am engaging without good faith… that would imply I’m not interested in considering someone else might be right and I might be wrong. I consider that every time I engage someone in conversation.
As you said, you didn’t have to engage, and so for your answer I am grateful. Have a good day, and for what its worth I hope more people start personally finding the planet to be their calling. It’s a good one.
