Rebel against the majority? Because the government doesn't act because the majority doesn't want it to, despite vague propositions. Want to tax your own fuel and heating? Want to stop flying? Want to put millions out of business in your country because the cost of energy and materials went through the roof? This is what we're talking about. Of course it's very satisfying to not want these things and spend the time blaming politicians for their inaction.

It may not seem like it, but poll after poll shows that the majority is concerned about climate change and supports government actions to tackle it. Worldwide. Just a few examples [0][1].

Also, you don't need to wait for the majority to rebel [2]

As I said, the majority "is concerned", but at the same time doesn't really want to take actions. Because being concerned is free, taking initiatives can be very, very expensive.

Just look at what happened in France when the government decided to increase taxes on fuels.
