This is one of the main ways we fool ourselves. We splice the emissions pie to as small slices as the argument requires and then remark on how small each of those is. Next you might say that energy use in residential buildings is just 10% of all energy use and your kind of residential building is still a much smaller part of that. Or that you live in X part of the world and X is only respoinsible for a small percentage of global emissions, so your actions don't really matter...
