I don’t want to imply that this must be a barrier to action, but how much time have you spent digging in to questions relevant to cause prioritization? Your priorities might change as you investigate more.
Here are a couple flowcharts—if you haven’t engaged with a particular question before, like really grappled with whether animals have moral status, you might find your priorities change as you think through these considerations.
Thanks, I have started to dig into the causes mainly through listening to podcasts and it really shifted my perspective on many causes; and actually let me to that post, but these flowcharts are new to me—I’ll dive in, thanks !
