So we can start focusing on real solutions to climate change. Like building cities that don’t depend on cars for transportation. Right… right?
"building cities"
Well, one can attempt to make it easier going forward but this isn't sim city where you can just demolish your entire infrastructure and remake it to suit your needs.
Doing so will take decades to even start to have an impact on personal vehicle usage. Decades we don't really have.
We used to lift cities up to support sewer systems and now adding relatively simple infrastructure seems out of reach. Neoliberalism has completely ruined our ability to invest in public infrastructure
