There's an attempt here to claim causation here and therefore induce guilt in individuals which is, for lack of better terminiology, daft.
Our carbon emissions aren't really linkable to individual actions in this way aside from fairly direct pollution like burning hundreds of kilograms of plastic in your garden.
Otherwise you end up with absurdities like claiming that, say, the guy who works on the checkout in my local Tesco has a huge carbon footprint because he sells lots of people beef.

It's all linked, the problem is collective.
