    The problem is we can’t keep the same resources waste up. Lower range and smaller cars is what is needed. The perfect car of the future would be a one-seater that is as small and light as a electric velomobile (~70kg). Build a few millions of them and replace all cars in a city with those. Ideally self driving and as a robo-taxi, but even without the self driving this would be good. Of course cars isn’t really that high on the list for climate change.

    But as a civilization we are simply not an intelligent species.

      how do we magically get goods to and from?

      grocery store trips?

      what about other items from the store such as TVs?

      what about families?

      have you seen what is required daily or weekly for a baby?

      what about a Micro Center trip?

      not intelligent to be able move people and objects around?

      travel over 3,000 miles every few months for work out of state and could not see myself in that taking naps at a rest stop comfortably

      with such out of touch comments the petrol conundrum may never be solved
