We don’t just need electric cars, we need fewer cars - Greenpeace International

Ever since the first production car rolled off the assembly line more than 100 years ago, our love affair with automobiles has grown and grown.

Interesting article from 2018. But nothing has changed at all. Even the electric cars I see on the road are huge.

    The roads here are so wide (usually 6 lanes plus turn lanes and a median) that we could build wall2wall apartments/condos/flats on on half of the road and still have enough road left for 3-4 lanes of traffic and a detached dedicated bike path and sidewalks.

    Cars take up way more space than people realize.

      streets like these really make you feel it in your bones, everything feels comfortable and spacious with like 500 people on the same street until 5 cars show up and suddenly there’s a fucking traffic jam out of nowhere.
