Your question is "how can we save the planet?" There's no such thing as an answer to that. If you were to ask, "what can an individual do to diminish their carbon footprint?" Or "how can we conserve and distribute our global fresh water supply?" -these are still big questions but they're more likely to have a specific answer as they're not vague. I wasn't insulting your question.

As for Carlin, it's definitely satire, but there is truth in jest. He's right, the planet will be just fine. WE (humans) are potentially screwed. It's a great observation imo.
