    Wrappers, everything is wrapped in plastic and its hard to find things that don't have a plastic wrapping around them.

    Less carbon is emitted and if everywhere is nice then maybe it wont make it too expensive

    When you make an area more carbon efficient, it makes it more expensive to live there because more people want to live there.

    I think we should add bike lanes and encourage biking and we should provide LED lights to everyone

    I get around less when I'm using renewable energy and when I bike. I enjoy riding my bike more than walking and riding in a car, but driving a car is more fun than biking.
