The idea of 'carbon foot prints' and that individual consumption matters in climate change is a lie that was started by the oil companies, specifically BP. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_footprint

Lies and propaganda like this make it impossible for average people to sense-make around climate change actions. The problem is production, specifically over-production of capitalism. The individual does not control the means of production, capitalists and industrialist do. The solution is to rethink 'production'. In doing so, we need to rethink the whole social system we live in.
