There is absolutely nothing wrong with this. Just make sure everything you do is sustainable and nothing you do prevents future generations from doing it. This means avoiding activities that will generate CO2 and avoiding CO2 must become voluntary and automatic.

There is no way you can get the entire population to collectively reduce CO2 emissions if they feel like they will lose out. Most people are "lazy" (in the sense that they cannot care about millions of different problems) which means high moral standards for CO2 emission reductions will turn them off.
