Stop. Using. Cars.
OK.
Question: how do you propose I get to work? It's 15 miles, there are no trains, the buses are far too convoluted and take about 2 hours each way (no I'm not kidding), and "move house" is obviously going to take too long ("hey boss, some rando on the internet said "stop using cars" so do you mind if I take indefinite leave to sell my house and buy a closer one?").
There should be viable mass transit. This is a systemic problem.
Sure, but the challenge was "Don't use cars", not "Don't use cars where there is viable mass transit in place".
Buy a motorcycle. Not technically a car!
I already have (Yamaha MT10), but presumably that has the same problem that cars do (burning fossil fuels); also it's no good in shit weather (yeah I know that means I need better clothing).
