Sure, and XR are in many ways great. They get people out. And you’re right, the anti fracking groups have been great. (Although sadly one in my former neck of the woods went a bit 5G conspiracy. But that’s another thread).
My issue with seeming to have the message “private citizen: don’t drive!” is take just for example where my family are from: Blantyre. It’s an ex-coal mining town with a nearby ex-steel works. All the jobs were in the mine or the steel. Then there were none. Now most people (if they work) work in things like care. So they’re scattered over the central belt. You used to be able to cycle to Ravenscraig or walk to the mine. But if your care home is in East Renfrewshire, if you don’t drive you don’t get there. Trying to do that on public transport would involve overnight stays!
So you need to provide the alternatives. How do people in low wage jobs get to work? If your message just looks like “stop driving”, you may as well be talking Klingon. It doesn’t relate to real lived experience of people.
