Hopefully self-driving cars will take care of the traffic and reduce vehicle ownership, which should reduce emissions dramatically. Regular public service announcements reminding people to keep their tires inflated properly and not leave heavy stuff in the trunk would do a lot to increase fuel efficiency as well.
In England when the traffic lights go from stop to go, the yellow light flashes on to warn you it is about to go green. Just a tiny feature that makes traffic flow slightly better, which would save vast amounts of fuel per year if implemented everywhere.
Throwing away food, especially meat that's gone bad is my worst fixable transgression, and canned meat like tuna (20 cans every two weeks? jesus) must be much better in that regard. If I had to guess I'd say the emissions impact of a can of tuna would be what, 10% of the that for beef or chicken? Not being perishable, not requiring feed or water, must make a big difference.
edit: I never know how much to trust the methodology of these things, but apparently canned tuna is 6.1kg CO2 per kg of meat, and beef is 27kg. Chicken is 6.9.
