Yes. If the currently available options intended to fix a particular problem don't actually fix the problem while at the same time make the offending business more powerful while making the little guy less powerful...then yes, doing nothing is clearly a better option in the short term.

Sounds like your expectation is too high. Either something stops climate change in its tracks, or it's not worth doing. Small incremental improvements? Nah, it won't solve the problem so let's not bother.

>doing nothing is clearly a better option in the short term.

But what about the long term?
