Then he is a Emo queen
If he really wants to save the climate he can keep flying and driving Range Rovers. He should just not keep any carnivore pets (dogs, cats) nor eat any meat from a farmed land animal (fish is ok). This alone would be more than enough to save the climate, but let's focus on the airplanes
On first glance, Holthaus was already doing a lot. He recycles and doesn’t own a car. He’s also a vegetarian. But [...] he found that his CO2 emissions were still double that of the average American. Doing almost everything else “right” wasn’t enough to make up for the approximately 75,000 miles he flies annually.
He still might be an Emo though...
On a side note, I find it funny that they specify that he recycles. Here in Sweden it's just what you do. There are 11 different receptacles for my trash outside my door.
