Just as many animals writhed in needless pain and misery, just as many children died of starvation, just as many women were raped, just as many people feared the consequences of war and violence, and just as many faced the prospect of disease. Just as many people stayed poor, just as many of the factors leading to climate change increased, and just as much neglect and cruelty paid for the privileges and comforts you enjoy unthinkingly. Just as little effort was expended to address these issues.
