Exactly, you draw the line where it is under your control.
I control my food, so I choose to be vegetarian, mostly vegan, but I am weak and struggling with it.
I had a freind who didn't work, he was on a disability pension, he had a car, but he rarely ever used it, he walked for miles and miles, he walked to the shops every day, rain hail or shine, in illness and in health.
Unfortunately a car is a neccessary evil for me, as a full time working single mum, time is my enemy and my life is busy. I do however try to use premium petrol with the least emmissions as possible, and follow the guidelines for least petrol consumption.
I have no control over paving the sidewalk, however I personally do prefer it to be a smooth path, as I am often walking with a pushchair and children.
I do not see an equal comparison between meat, cars and sidewalks.
