[1.] Cool and heat your home with mini split system AC units, separate one for each room for redundancy and to be able to turn it off, when the room is not occupied.

These usually cost 500USD/room (including installation)

[2.] Cook with induction plates instead of fire.
Single units have around 2000W of power and they create the heat (via induction) directly in the pot/pan's material, very little energy is wasted. Double, triple or quad induction cookers may require thicker wiring, as they can go up to 7000W total.
[3.] Electric water boiler.
These use between 1500 and 2200 Watts of power for a couple minutes. Really practical, they boil the water really fast. The ones with the heating element in the water are slightly more efficient than the ones with a hidden heating element.
[4.] Electric lawn mower, chainsaw and other electric tools.
Many gardening sets come with the same type of battery, so you can keep them charged up then connect them to any of the tools you want to use. They are very silent and non-polluting.
NOTE: please don't use leaf blowers of any kind, because they fill the air with particulates from the ground. In some states they are already illegal.
[5.] Electric vehicles.
Tesla Model 3 SR+ is the best value EV for 38K USD. The 35K USD version can be ordered in showrooms or by phone, but then they remove features and disable some parts.... unlockable later for a fee.
MANY people are skeptical of electricity use instead of combustibles, because in many places electricity is created by burning stuff, BUT we already know for a fact that even if the electricity is generated by burning coal, overall emissions are lower and if nobody burns stuff in cities, then there will be no concentrated pollution on the streets. BUT2 the electrical grid is getting greener every day, as more and more people and companies are installing solar panels and wind farms. If we do our part in purchasing these very cheap electric products, the 100% clean air future can come very soon (barring acts of God and forest fires).
