So, to summarize the thread with respect to car free living:
Either
1) Car free living can be part of a solution to a golbal warming problem by reducing carbon emmissions

or

2) global warming is too far advanced for wholesale car free living to make a difference

or

3) global warming isn't really a problem, and we can look forward to coconut palms growing on
the white house lawn and shedding our winter gear.

A few years ago the US position was that global warming isn't occuring or if it was people had no effect on it but now with this report that fourth possibility can't be taken seriously.

Is that a good summary?
