This rings a bell. Wynes & Nicholas (2017) useful paper on key actions to reduce CO2 emissions. Argues 1 less child, live car-free, 1 less big flight & plant-based diet "have much greater potential" than e.g. recycling, insulation, efficient bulbs

A recent paper highlighted the most effective personal decisions to tackle climate change: 1. Don't have a child. 2. Live carless. 3. Avoid transatlantic flights. 4. Buy green energy. 5. Switch to an electric car. 6. Eat a plant-based diet. https://t.co/
