Climate change. Will a personal car be outlawed? When?

Seventy per sent of the CNN poll participants think that the global warming is the reason of the catastrophic floods in Europe.

The best bicycle trail in the world - the beautiful Danube Cycle Path is damaged by floods (I hope only damaged, but I fear the worst).

Since the car is the major contributor of the environmental damage, will people ever try to do something about it? Will they try to limit the weight of a car or will they outlaw it for most uses?

I know that in Greece some steps taken in this direction. On the even days only the cars with the number, which ends on an even figure, could drive. On an odd day of the month - cars with the last odd number. I would say - too little too late.

What would be done? If anything. What is the guess? Or will it continue with the same tempo and billions new cars will be just joining the frenzy?
