Where's the article? I can only see a headline and a picture
Modern insulation technology has advanced further than you think. An apartment built to a modern standard will have a lot less people loudness than you're used to. Also, people get louder when the environment is loud, and cars are loud. If you take the cars out of a city, the people get quieter.
Dutch cities are way quieter and more peaceful than American cities. This is because cars are loud.

I'm willing to moderate. Big NJB fan, I watch all his videos when they come out. I'm good at moderation and I have too much free time.

We can cut emissions hugely by eliminating plastic crap, building technology and tools to last, living in vibrant medium density neighbourhoods with public transit and bicycles for all, building renewable energy sources, and eliminating meat.
I wake up in the morning, ride my bike to a job where I fix old technology and make a difference, then pick up groceries from local and sustainable businesses, get some exercise and sun in on my bike, and make a delicious vegan meal like roast potatoes. I'm happier, more active, healthier, and I feel like my life makes a difference. You, meanwhile, get to ride around in your metal box having to maintain constant focus or you could kill someone, getting no exercise, and presumably eating meat that hurts animals, wastes carbon, and kills you faster. Of course you need a vacation on a plane to make you happy; your life is miserable.
