Some ways to make the situation better: - Find a job closer to where you live or move closer to where you work. - Get a smaller car. - Get solar installed in your home. - Decrease usage of disposable products. Use a shopping bag, a water bottle, your own mug, your own utensils, etc. - Stop buying objects you don't strictly need. Prefer products that do not suffer from planned obsolescence. Prefer reusable/recyclable packaging. - Decrease or stop consumption of meat. - Wear more clothes instead of turning up the heater and get better thermal isolation (e.g: thicker windows). Now, electric cars do not contaminate your immediate surroundings, but the process of manufacturing them can have a higher carbon footprint than the lifetime emissions of the vehicle.
