This is a false dichotomy, but also, maybe if all the others have been doing it for millennia there is a reason. For instance, having large groups that walk fast while not taking too much space, but also many other things : Marching into battle, study
The "if we can't, that's okay" is really nice to add. I'll try to keep it in mind. My 4yo tends to become frustrated when we can't keep our words.
Tokyo banned diesel motors in the late 90s. As far as I know that didn't kill Toyota.
At the same time European car makers started to lobby for particle filters that were supposed to solve everything. The politics who where naive enough to believe them do share responsibility, but not as much as the european auto industry that created this whole situation.
Also, you implies that laws are made by politicians without any intervention of the industries whatsoever. I think you know that it is not how it works.
I work in construction and currently work on the restructuration of an active airport, with various worksite around the airport. I have a very cool badge that clearly states that I can access almost every place. Regularly, when I'm in a part of the airport that is in activity, I have people asking me directions, and I'm like : "No, I don't know where gate 15 is, but I can tell you everything about the beam above your head if it helps..."

I'm French. I have been to many protests. Some ended in massive movement for no reasons. Some died while the cause was very important. You never know.
Linux users : Nooooooo !!!!
They were decimated in the 19th century. They only started coming back in the 90s from Italy.
Went to a corrida in southern France. Apparently it went particularly bad. It was horrific to watch (for the bull).
What actually happened is Joliot turned into a supervilain, he killed Pierre Curie before he could become a superhero, but was ultimately defeated by Henri Bequerel, who is immortal.
I thought this was common knowledge.
In the meantime Irene Joliot died of the radiations, as everybody would expect.
