People who press the button at the pedestrian crossing and then cross anyway right after: how do you think the 1997 Kyoto protocol affected the industrial economics of the late 2010's? (lemmy.world)

On a slightly more serious note: I really wonder what's going on in your mind when you press that button and cross anyway. Is it just because "I don't care", or is there more to it? If so: what?

EDIT: In case it's because you don't care: why do you press the button then?

I will confess that the other day I pressed the button, then saw a friend of mine in the distance, stopped to wave at them, and then by the time we'd waved at one another I realised that the lights had changed, the traffic had waited, and the lights had changed again... All while I'd been looking the other way like a lemon...
