Exactly. There is plenty of blame to put on the people who - in the face of a freaking climate crisis - still decide to ship shitloads shiploads of fossil fuel through a warzone.

What are non-ethnic citizens?

Ok, to me that already sounds very different.

“Ethnic minority/ majority” makes sense.

Non-ethnic German is tricky, because there are multiple ethnicities in Germany.

Yes Al Gore (and other people with too much money) should consume less energy (including electricity), but no that changes nothing about the importance of his (then) message, and yes there are plenty of places that are already suffering from the effects sea level rise.

Regardless of whether its wishful thinking, I think we should first devote our resources to minimizing how we are harming these (and other) creatures. To know this we don’t have to know their language.
