Electric lawnmower, solar panels on the roof, make your daily driver a hybrid or electric. I've done the 1st two, I'm retired so driving is minimal, maybe 10 miles/week. I would say more importantly, vote for candidates that recognize climate change for the threat that it is and who will support initiatives toward clean energy as a top priority.
The fact is, eventually we will be forced toward clean energy whether we like it or not. You think Uncle Sam is in your underwear now, just wait. The combustion engine will go by way of the dinosaur replaced by electric power, solar panels on roof tops part of the building code, more nuclear power plants until compact nuclear fusion reactors come on-line giving us "clean factories". The question is will we transition in time before we've really screwed it up for future generations. We're close to 3 "tipping points" right now, any one of them can trigger a green-house runaway, if that happens we're screwed.
Like I said in the beginning -
