Commuting is no doubt a large contributor to carbon emissions. But, suburban and rural living lead to car-centric lifestyles in general. Driving to school, to the grocer, to entertainment and dining, etc. Plus all the infrastructure to support that - more roads, giant parking lots, etc.

Yes, perhaps. So a carbon tax is still a good idea. (And so is removing things like minimum parking requirements.)
