@bonkerfield Agreed. Was also struck by the comparison to donations.

Really liked this data-focused report about how to reduce your personal carbon footprint. (Haven't fact-checked it myself, but it feels consistent with other things I've read.) https://founderspledge.com/stories/climate-and-lifestyle-report
