And the ones in your garage.

Ah, yes, the old "consumers are the problem" rhetoric when, in actuality, they only account for 10% of emissions.

10% is 10%. I can't control what the CEO of an oil company does, but I can decide avoid using fossil fuels. (Maybe if enough of us did the same, we actually could influence an oil company.) We each have to do everything we can to reduce CO2. Dismissing something as rhetoric doesn't help.

I can't control the infrastructure that requires me to drive a car.
