The great, intolerable lifestyle changes people cite as necessary to limit climate change always feel anti-climactic to me. Insulate houses better, ride the bus, don't buy so much crap, eat less animal products.

The thing is, these are all mostly positive or neutral lifestyle-wise when the infrastructure is there for it. Driving 40 minutes to work sucks even without traffic. Big, poorly insulated houses suck and end up uncomfortable anyway. Buying so much crap sucks because then you're either continually throwing shit out or living with unbearable clutter. Animal products are good in moderation but right now they're the biggest component of most meals.
