At the same time that "little bit at a time" change can 100% come from a well reasoned argument, the first step i took was to cut out beef since it's by far the worst food for the climate and it really isn't difficult to stop eating it (both pork and chicken are readily available and tasty, so it's basically just a matter of checking ingredient lists for stuff like meatballs and sausages).
I think the key thing is just that people have to be presented with an immediate action they can take that isn't some huge sacrifice, and ideally actually benefits them in some way.
Like to make people drive less: Maybe ask them if they've considered that an electric moped would be MUCH cheaper to operate, way easier to find parking for at work, and means that a person at home can still have access to the car. That's very reasonable for a lot of people and might well lead to them ditching the car entirely.
