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.

    In all honesty, I would probably drive in your situation, though I might invest in a folding bike/e-bike I can toss in the trunk. It’s crazy how small those things are now! They had some Urtopias at the local bike shop last time I swung by, and I swear they fold up smaller than most adult scooters I’ve seen.

    Fwiw my commute is about 35 min by regular bike, 25 by e-bike, 15 by car if the traffic is light (that’s a big if), or around 45 by bus. E-bike is my preferred option.
