Maybe the premise is flawed...it may cost less to fight climate change. For example, looking just at greenhouse gas emissions, transportation, electricity generation, and agriculture account for roughly 2/3 of emissions. I have solar panels on my roof that generate 100% of my electricity, and it saves me money over what I was paying before. I have worked from home since 2015, and have averaged half the miles driven per year versus when I worked in an office. This saves on gas and wear and tear on my car. I also eat vegetarian one day a week for both health reasons and to cut down on the impact to the environment. This depends on what meat you swap out and what vegetables and fruit you swap in, but for me it is a savings. The total savings for all of these isn't huge, but it is about $400-$500 monthly
