What do you expect them do on an individual or even municipal level? It’s a global issue.

Supporting policies at the provincial and federal level that would help with the global issue would have been good. I'm guessing support for the carbon tax isn't any higher in PEI, though, so this is just "leopards eating their face".

    But even if they and their country do everything right, the rest of world may (isn’t) and it’s going to be more or less the same anyways.

    I mean, if we're handwaving away the human nature of the entire population of PEI, we might as well do the rest of the world too.

    In case it wasn't clear, this wasn't practical advice. Large groups of people quite often don't do what they should. This is one of those times. Now we have to live with the consequences.
