World hits 12 straight months of record-high temperatures — but as warming continues, it’ll be “remembered as comparatively cold”

Genuine question.
What can I, an average Joe, do about global warming?
I compost, grow a lot of my own food, recycle, avoid plastic as much as possible, built a little solar system along my fence that powers probably 20% of the house.
I feel like I do a lot more than the average person and still know it’s not enough. Even if every consumer did their part would it be enough to counteract the pollution from the conglomerates? It doesn’t feel like it.
Same as with anything that needs a collection of people to make a change. You just do it so that more people start to do it and at some point that number of people is large enough that it makes a dent. Or more likely, large enough that companies realise potential for profit and invest more into it, making a positive feedback loop.
