Carbon tax and zoning reform. A tax won't actually succeed in reducing demand if people continue to be forced to drive everywhere because their destinations are too far apart.

Very true. Especially in the US and Australia. On the other hand, increased cost for transportation would create a lot of pressure on individual transport that should lead to more demand for public transport. The effect would probably be slower than a zoning reform
