Yes and in your lifetime you may convince maybe 10 000 people. Or we could collectively replace coal with nuclear and put some serious funding towards carbon capture via algae (including partially turning it back to biofuels) and then everyone can just keep living their life without having to replace an entire infrastructure.

Because it's busy work that distracts from the real problems and their solutions.

It's why the PR strategy for the biggest polluters is: place the responsibility on the individual so they can feel good by making irrelevant changes to their livestyle so we can keep polluting.

Anyone acting like the actions of average individuals (short of giving up most of what makes modern life comfortable) are going to make a relevant impact on climate change are playing into this strategy.

So it's not like telling the guy running for local government to run for president instead, it's telling him that when he says "I'll build 5 prisons in our county to stop the cartels nationwide" it's absurd and counterproductive.
