I write this reminder as someone who is educating himself about climate change.
The Muslims in countries that have wealthier lifestyles have a responsibility of adapting their lifestyles, even with small changes, because among the most affected by climate change are brothers and sisters who often live much poorer lifestyles.
We are not perfect ; but we should reduce our emissions because it is beneficial.
It’s not about living in tents, even changes like reducing meat consumption (I’m no vegan but in the West many people do eat too much meat, during the time of the salaf it was much more precious), reducing electricity consumption, unnecessary AI usage or unnecessary plane usage, or food wasting when done in masses, do have an impact
It’s not about punishing the poor as they already struggle, but those who do have lavishness in their lifestyle should indeed question it
