    we’d intervene

    That’s the problem, we won’t. There is too much now that needs to be done, and your neighbors don’t care. Try telling your neighbor not to use a dirty 2-stroke gas lawnmower, or weed killer on a residential law, they’ll hate you, won’t understand what you’re talking about, and think that you are stupid. Everything then becomes a state intervention with police, courts, laws, jails.

      Try telling

      There’s your problem, right there.

      Have a conversation. Ask questions. Live by example. When asked, demonstrate the advantages of doing differently.
