It will not be long before climate change deniers will be put in the same bag of crazies as anti-vaxers and flat earthers. I hope that day comes before it is too late.
I'm already doing something . . some of it not by choice:

Change a 15 yr old 1.8 petrol car for a 5 yr old 1.2 (turbo) that doesn't seem much different on fuel economy yet has numerous fancy (expensive to fix) gadgets on board to help me drive safely and economically (most now turned off). Also reduced from a 3 car family to a 2 car family.

Using recommended light bulbs that 'save the world' with an actual life of about 9 months instead of the 25 years advertised.

Deciding not to have a 20 sq M patio laid, leaving it lawned instead.

Hows China doing?
