I agree with what you're saying, if citizens make mire of an effort not to use their car, it can call for a better world with a decreasing amount of carbon. If people walk, bike, or take public transit to their nearby activities and work, instead of going by car it can be the first step you take to living an eco-friendlier lifestyle and cause for your city to grow more sustainable. On the counter point people may not live in a central enough area to bike, walk, or bus to their destinations. It can be time consuming and crowded and an environment that some don't feel is a good environment for them. nonetheless i think this is an easy step we can take to reduce the ongoing problem of our carbon footprint. In addition to this we can build and create more public green spaces that are accessible to the public. This is an extremely important action we can take. It can create community, allow people to have an excuse to go outside more often and overall have a crucial role to play in the sustaining of our cities.
