> Make cities walkable, bikeable and public transportable. That will have far bigger impact than people buying new electric cars.
Not going to happen in time. And city traffic is only relatively small part of all of our CO2 emissions. Truck and delivery trucks emit more CO2 than most other cars combined, and even in walkable cities, you will still have those.
And even if we somehow to get all our cities completely carbon neutral, we still have industry, cargo, food production and lest not forget all the militaries, that themselves emit enough CO2 that they will cause climate disaster.
> The key to solving climate change isn't to do as before, just slightly more efficient.
You want big changes. You wont get them, until its too late. Because politics and people.
The best we can hope for is that enough of this kind of small improvements will add up over time, and we will find out good mitigations.
