Is there a textual summary somewhere?

Here is an article that was referenced in the video: https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2017/1/9/the-real-reason...
Read that before. It’s amazing how it just lays out how an entire way of life is not sustainable.

Of course, I live in a walkable neighbourhood in Europe, so it’s easy for me to say that.

Not even sustainable on a simple medium term economical basis, regardless of externalities (environmental/human health impacts). But that's arguably a good thing, as long as we don't run out of money before making the necessary changes...
Thanks! Good read, hopefully will have time to read the whole series (and watch the video!) eventually.
