    A possible option working within existing systems would be:

    Parental leave: you get pop sustain rate (2.1?) parental leaves banked. You use 1 leave for every child you have and bank is allowed negative with no penalty. At 45 or so you get to use your bank without being a parent.

    Something like 95% of people become parents.

    Flex time/time-bank + home/hybrid office fix most other issues in office jobs.

    Pedant here! The smog was a result of NOx emissions, not lead, but both were hazardous to public health which has always been the motivation for emission control.

    Climate change concerns were just marketing on legislation. If climate change was the actual concern then there would have been smaller engines with better economy. But that would of course reduce oil demand so it’s commie shit.
