Satellite imagery shows Northern California kelp forests have collapsed

The best solution, AFAICS, is to push for space exploration. In the meantime, if you're single, you could try to live in a more dense downtown location where living car-free is practical. I'm not sure that would be a good idea if you had kids though.

Or get an electric car. Even with embodied emissions, it's half (or less) of the emissions of a conventional car. And improving over time. (In the US, emissions per kWh of electricity have dropped about 30% over the last 10 years alone.)

Living in a dense neighbourhood where you don't need to commute by car is more efficient still. But yes, if that isn't an option, an electric car, preferrably a Tesla so you can indirectly support Musk's space exploration goals, seems like the next best option.
