As I recall iff you could get the reaction to go fast enough at a low temperature then you wouldn't need such a high pressure to push the equilibrium forward.
Are they thinking of such a big scale that a slow process would work.

1: Stay moving. At a certain you either stretch or walk daily or you can't move. Start NOW.
2: Sometimes to care about. Garden. Grandkids. Pets. Doesn't matter.
I said entirely. Given quiet streets as when I was growing up kids didn't always bother to go to playgrounds. Still useful to have them.

Urban parks pre-dated cars so no that doesn't entirely work.

"The most important part of the bike plan is the car plan."
Five policies to help your city go Dutch and put bicycles and people first.
momentummag.com/five-policie...
City: We unanimously declare a climate emergency! We must make change no matter what the cost, humanity's survival depends on it!
Community: Can we put in a protected bike lane to get more people cycling.
City: No, we'll lose parking spots.
