    It's certainly true in my case - I've switched to getting around by ebike and public transport although I own a car.

    It's fun as well. Something the government can encourage that cuts CO2 without making life worse.

      It's so frustrating to see a solution so obvious, so pleasant, so green, stymied at every possible opportunity, here in the US. It's really really nice to ride a bike here -- but many parts of town are functionally off-limits to me because I don't want to die or become paraplegic by car.

        Micro mobility is amazing if you live in an area that is at all accommodating. I started using an electric scooter to go get lunch when weather isn't intolerable. It's harder with small children or if everything is car-only distances away (like rural areas), but not impossible. So much less hassle than a car IMO.
