"[cars] (depending on where you live) something you actively need to survive." Seems like you conveniently forgot something there. If you live in a place where you can walk to work and the grocery store that's amazing for you! For many people having a vehicle is not a choice, but a necessity.

Uber.

Let me say again, Uber.

Busses, trains, scooters, electric vehicles of any kind.

I'm not saying electric means no fossil fuel emissions of any kind. Almost everywhere is feeling varying growing pains exploring how to responsibly keep an ever more drawn upon electric grid charged.

I'm saying gas fueled cars need to go away, not yesterday, but at least 15 years ago.

Gas cars are what we as a species NEED to quit.

Simple vices pale in comparison.
