And bunch of other sacrifices. One of the points was also about everyone living in a city close by. The study is not applicable to real life, it's utopia scenario. One of the biggest problems isn't even resources, but co2 production.

    I dunno, I think it would be perfectly doable with good public transit.

    Don't have many big cities, but have mid-sized cities near-ish, and smaller towns near the mid-sized ones. A sort of 'web' of cities, if you will.

    what you're describing is called "multigrid" system.

    you have grids of varying size, all overlapping each other.

    examples:

    notice the streets make some kind of "grid" on the landscape
