9. As obnoxious as she is, she does point out a real paradox . . .

and, however unintentionally, she gives him a platform to describe a reasonable resolution to that paradox.

Climate change is the biggest challenge that the human community faces. The leaders of the movement to address climate change believe that street protest is essential to the movement. Street protest requires fossil fuel transportation (even if you took the bus or the train) as well as the use of electronics like iPhones. These things contribute to the problem. (Not sure I see how electronics contribute, but give her that point for the sake of argument.)

Ask RFK Jr. rightly points out, the only way out is to change the system so that people *can* live in a sustainable way. In our system, to give up your own transportation and electronics is, unfortunately, to give up your voice. Rather than giving up your voice, change the system that requires you to pollute in order to be heard.
