Well the solutions that are screamed at me involve me giving up my car, my gas range, most of the electronics I find enjoyable, any and all non-essential activities, traveling, etc. In addition to moving into a city with overcrowding public transit (you think it's bad now?) with rapidly increasing crime, more expensive _everything_ is just not something that really gets me in the mood to just say "YEAH, LET'S DO IT! Wait, why am I the only one doing it and suffering?"

I don't think forcing people into suffering (because it is) is a very appealing argument.
