Read the following passage and, in no more than twelve words, state the author's primary claim about the relationship between individual actions and global climate trends.

"Every day, countless small choices—turning off a light, taking a bus instead of a car, refusing a single‑use plastic—seem insignificant. Yet, when these choices are multiplied across millions of people, they form a powerful collective force that can either accelerate or mitigate the planet's warming. The climate crisis is not solely the result of grand industrial policies; it is also shaped by the cumulative impact of everyday decisions made by ordinary citizens worldwide."
