When couples disagree on taking environmental risks at work

My partner and I both work in tech and we keep talking about wanting to reduce our environmental impact but we can't agree on whether switching our company's data infrastructure is worth the career risk when neither of us wants to be the one pushing for changes that might make us look difficult. We both feel guilty about the massive energy consumption but we're paralyzed between our values and our need for job security.
