2. Overcoming the triangle of inaction
When it comes to taking action for the climate, it’s sometimes easy to think that it’s the other players, seen as more powerful than us “ordinary citizens” (the State, companies) who are responsible and who must lead the fight first. With each party blaming the other, these thoughts trap us in what is commonly known as the triangle of inaction.
We all have a role to play in the climate crisis. And if you want to move beyond this triangle of inaction and encourage action within your company, there are several online articles available:
- What is the triangle of inaction? – Neo&Nea
- The keys to getting out of the triangle of inaction – Neo&Nea
