    Please show me where OP asked for ways to “immediately reduce their carbon footprint.”

    That is not what was requested in the post title. “Carbon Footprint” is a piece of propaganda perpetuated by the biggest industry offenders to shift blame to the individual and distract from their own massively disproportionate contribution to climate change.

      I can’t help but notice you’ve contributed nothing productive to this conversation

        So you’re gonna skip over the part where I was right and you were plainly wrong?

        If I were to suggest an actually productive solution with a $10k budget, my comment would be removed and I’d be on a list. We both know what that means.

          It means 1) you lack the imagination to describe your ideas with any nuance and 2) you’re the kind of guy who tells other people to put themselves in danger while sitting behind your keyboard doing nothing

            You have a very interesting way of ascribing motive here. You say I lack imagination, I say you have an excess of imagination.

      That totally ignores the demand side of the equation. If people didn’t want to buy X believe me, they wouldn’t sell X. I’m pretty sure the horse and buggy industry and cathode ray tube tv industries would’ve loved to have kept selling their products.
