The bikes would still be shipped from india because it's cheaper. So the OPs question stays the same. Would you be willing to buy a bike that's 3 times the price because it's been built locally. Statistics show that most people wouldn't. So no, most people wouldn't change their lifestyle to combat climate change. Should they? Obviously, since living a modest life is better than burning alive or drowning. Although in all fairness, people might be more willing to spend money to combat climate change if corpocrats wouldn't be gobbling up every bit of wealth like fucking ghouls.
