There are scales. A flight produces many orders of magnitude more pollution than any Zoom call. We don't need to stop pollution entirely, just reduce it to manageable reasonable amounts and plant more trees in the process. Maybe find technological solutions for carbon capture etc. Individually and at small scale each of those is insignificant but at large scales they can make an impact.
Even if we find a magical solution like fusion we'd still need to replace all the energy plants in the world and get everyone to use electric energy and do carbon capture. There's no "magic bullet", we'll need to do all of these things AND hope for SEVERAL magic bullets AND advocate for heavier government regulation.
