 Dirt: A major contributing factor to our dirtiest air in the nation is the pollution carried north to south in the valley and trapped by the mountains. New houses in the 5-digit range mean more people and cars. Fining people for burning logs in a fireplace, using the inefficient bus system, riding a bike, etc. doesn't make much of an impact on air pollution.  On the other hand, I have used public transit in the Bay Area. The Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) system is convenient, affordable, and in most cases, faster than driving the nightmare traffic. Bakersfield has a long way to go before our public transit can compare. Your suggestion that alternative transportation will clean our air, make flowers happy, and accommodate the lifestyles and daily affairs of most households is right now simplistic and impractical.
