"every 1% increase in the population density of a city associates with a 0.79% reduction in its CO2 emissions per capita"

Well I can’t disagree with the science, but how do you overcome the rising cost of living/accommodation associated with increases in population density. It will inevitably push those that are less well off further out, and then you’re back to square one. I am totally on board with the tackling the climate crisis we’re facing, but until there is a total policy change and it’s made easier for people to be green, it won’t happen, and being condescending to someone on here with limited options to get to the start time of an event earlier than trains will allow won’t help.
More competition for accommodation, higher cost of living, fewer green spaces. A push towards increased urban living is unsustainable.
