This is the dumbest fucking argument. I’m sorry but what point do you think you’re making?
Is it imperfect? Yes. Just like ALL OTHER THINGS. Is it a major improvement compared to burning coal? OBVIOUSLY YES.
The obvious answer is to live in a yurt, drink rain water, and never use electricity again that you don't make from a bicycle-powered generator.
What's the yurt made of?
Fallen branches, leaves, and trees not already needed for any animal habitats or nutrition. The string to hold it together is, of course, woven from your own hair.
Also, no fires, since burning wood releases carbon into the atmosphere, so warmth can only be generated by sewing together carcasses of animals who died natural deaths.
And finally, following a strict diet to minimize gastro-intestinal discomfort lest you release methane into the atmosphere.
Or just make a rope from your own hair and hang yourself with it, as that's honestly the only way you can make no impact on the environment. I mean, don't do this, obviously, but that's it. As long as we exist, we affect the environment, so we should just do what we can to mitigate the negative effects. The perfect is the the enemy of the good.

Its not an argument, its a joke.
You must see enemies around every corner... I'd recommend talking to a therapist about that.
I would, but they're all out to get me.
