    Suburban sprawl makes owning a car a necessity. If we’re going to significantly reduce the amount of driving Americans do, I think most people are going to have to give up on the American dream. Most people are just not going to be able to own their own, detached single family home in the suburbs.

      Depends on where you live but making walkable/micromobility friendly cities more common is critical for sure. I’m fortunate enough that I can bike to work every day, same for groceries and general medical stuff.
