>shame and allegedly bully average consumers into possibly meaningless lifestyle changes is maybe almost certainly some sort of global or not global conspiracy that should be investigated and depending on the result of the investigation lead to various punishments in accordance with crimes committed ranging from fines to jail time or execution of likely non-zero number of politicians and CEOs possibly across the globe.
"bully average consumers into possibly meaningless lifestyle changes" isn't a crime, so "investigating" them for it seems like the kangaroo trial I just described. Not to mention "politicians and CEOs" isn't a monolith and often times it's not even the same people telling consumers to use paper straws vs pumping out microplastics, so there isn't even a contradiction.
