I think we need to make some clear distinctions here.
Pollution is fundamentally wrong, the production of toxic wastes cannot be condoned, however the vast majority of C02 produced is from things like domestic heating and cooking rather than industrial processes. As for methane the vast majority of this comes from ruminant animals and rotting vegetation.
Of course we need to think about our industrial processes and find ways to eliminate waste, reduce or eliminate toxic outputs, produce things that can be effectively and efficiently recycled and find ways to minimise the energy and wate. usage of domesticity.
However, we equally need to recognise that the almost messianic fervour of the green/climate change lobby is not actually in anyone's long term interest as it is
a) hypocritical - do they avoid flying? are they all vegetarian/vegan? do they only use public transport?
b) unreasonably restrictive on growth
c) inequitable to Africa, India and South America
