That would be nice, but in a democracy, no one is going to vote to inconvenience to themselves. We have to find motivation by other means than being forced, or we will create a society where nothing good happens without being forced to.

Some people will, because they recognize that something is more important than their own convenience. But there are, regrettably, a lot who won’t.

Look at the election in the Netherlands, the government had declared plans to reduce the nitrogen poisoning by the animal industry, the animalfarmers made a campaign and the people voted for a conservative right “farmers party”

We need to show support or those who are against change will win.
