How to Actually Personally Fight Climate Change

It's mostly good advice, but I had some thoughts while reading:

• Carbon credits/offsets/taxes are mostly bullshit feel-good schemes that just help justify the status quo.
• Insulating old houses is a big problem.
• Natural Gas def needs to be phased out, but only after oil is. Reducing demand for natural gas without reducing drilling will just result in more of it being burned/released at the drill site instead of captured.

Since I know my first thought will be heavily argued, I think the correct answer in place of these things is fuel rationing, and it can be phased in rapidly:

• Issue crude oil barrel tokens in accordance with the country's total usage (~7.5 billion tokens worth 1 barrel of crude)
• Divide these tokens equally across all adult US citizens (~270 million adults, ~27.8 tokens per person)
• Establish a marketplace to purchase other people's excess fuel tokens.
• Reduce tokens issued by 5-10% annually.

This enforces that drilling actually gets slowed over time, acts as an income redistribution mechanism, and doubles as an incentive to "go green" faster.

Does anyone actually buy Renewable Energy Certificates for residential use? I had never heard of this being a possibility, and with just some poking around it doesn't look like the places selling them are considering drive-by REC purchases from residential customers either. It just struck me as an odd suggestion to be bundled in, but maybe it's common in places where utility companies support it?
