I’d argue with the level of shit were in with the climate, the no cars lifestyle should be the future.

    It might be in a few nations with strong public transit already like Japan and a number or European nations but honestly idk if it will ever happen in the USA at least not in my life time.

    We went from zero cars to everything covered in cars in a lifetime, we can go back in a lifetime.

    Attitudes around public transport have to change. It's seen as a thing poor people use in some cities so the affluent kill expansion efforts. And even where it doesn't have that stigma, nobody wants to pay for infrastructure.

    It's so neat to have a problem that combines poor numeracy with not being able to see two steps ahead. Yeah, if could somehow grow the Venn diagram of people with those two skills that would be great.

    OK but that's about as realistic in the next 40+ years as genetically engineered flying pigs.

    Incremental progress is good.
