I'm already doing most of that (for personal reasons). It won't change the world or even the country though. Real change won't come until we eat the rich.
It would be more helpful if you learn to own your piece of the problem. You can make a fraction of a tiny piece of a difference if you live well below your means. Not until more people embrace it, then no mass change will be made.
Think of it like this. If you give less money to the rich, they will have less money to spend. You kill 2 birds with 1 stone.
Welp, I sold my home and my car, quit my job, cut my spending down to essentials, power what I have left using solar .. looks around .. Yep we're still fucked!
I said a fraction of a percent. You can also say you dont care about your emissions and continue as is.
