while the headline is a bit self-evident, the article itself covers a lot of interesting ground on the politics and practical implementation of doing this, and what places around the world are doing to try and reduce car usage

    We aren’t going to stop global warming just by getting rid of cars

    nobody is saying this, though. i don’t know whose point you’re arguing against here, but it’s not one made by the article or anyone in this thread.

      The title was against the claim getting EVs will solve climate change, and suggested reducing car use instead. Since it didn’t refute the overarching claim that climate change can be stopped by getting rid of cars, I thought it was still advocating that position, just a more extreme version. Sorry for the misunderstanding
