We have an awful lot, though. And people like me, who are eating far less meat (and in particular beef) than they did years ago specifically because of energy concerns. In fact the whole premise of the article is just wrong on its face. In fact people who care about climate issues do tend to have lower energy footprints than climate change deniers! We drive smaller cars. We commute shorter distances. We live in denser communities. We eat less meat. We eat local food. We use less water. This can all be measured. Is it enough? Of course not. But in fact to the extent individual action can be used in service to this goal, we're doing it. Get on board.
