Which is reasonable even if there was no climate catastrophe at all, I really hope I can fully experience unpolluted and much more silent inner cities in my lifetime!

Anyway, regarding your freedom, you are free to leave to more free countries, where you can also have your leaded pipes and other unhealthy great things back!

For the cities, I'm kinda hoping cars will be banned altogether or made really expensive like London has done. Especially in cities with amazing public transport there's no reason to have so many cars around.
So by "yes", you mean "no, and I won't for at least 12 more years".
I love the smell of gasoline in the morning
