I would argue that it's easier to switch energy completely to renewables than to significantly cut global energy usage. It's also more ethical solution than forcing people to live in tiny apartments and preventing them from traveling.

I'd argue that it's easier to increase energy consumption and not to worry about pollution at all, but it's not about what's easier unless you're holding the consequences constant.

What does this have to do with ethics? Is "more ethical" when you bother people less?
