There's a third option, though: Do whatever, but vote for a party that wants to curb emissions. Only governments can turn this around. Listened to an interview with a climate scientist who was advocating that. He said individual action is a distraction.
a) cut back on carbon emissions personally, and climate change will be undone
b) do nothing and let climate change take its course
but the reality is the option for your average consumer is
a) cut back on carbon emissions personally, and whatever happens to the world will happen regardless because you're only a microscopic contribution to the problem/solution
b) do nothing, and whatever happens to the world will happen regardless because you're only a microscopic contribution to the problem/solution
