The anti-car movement isn’t just about environmental/‘green’ issues. That’s a significant part, but far from the whole purpose. It has profound impacts on general health of a community, quality of life, cost of living, preventable deaths, economic productivity and more beyond green issues (including various pollutions, wildlife death and unnecessary production).
Dismissing anti-car sentiment because ‘what about this other problem’ is silly: both are important, and they are not mutually exclusive!
that (everything being too far to not drive) is the exact reason why probably everyone else in this community drives a car, and walkable infrastructure is the main thing it promotes. no one here is saying we should stop making cars and change nothing, instead that we should change things so that cars aren’t necessary anymore

Yeah, I use a bike as my main mean of transport or I just walk.
