“These problems were not created by government action, or government inaction. We created them, and only we can fix them”

Simplified Meaning:

The quote means that the issues we face were made by us, and it's our responsibility to solve them. An example would be pollution. Factories and cars release more pollution because people want to produce and use more things. The government didn’t force this to happen, and even if they ignored it for a while, it was still our actions that caused the problem. This highlights that everyone has a part in fixing it—like choosing to recycle, drive less, or use cleaner energy sources. The idea is that waiting for someone else to solve our problems isn't enough; we need to contribute to the solutions ourselves by making better choices every day.
