Ffs, can we please please stop the car centric city? Can we please invest in public transportation, bicycle lanes everywhere, and walkable neighborhoods?
Climate change hats this one little trick where we don't design cities to be car dependent hellscapes, and it's good for your (mental) health too!
This is an article posted by the BBC, in the UK.
Our cities are perfectly walkable, and we have public transport links.
FFS can we please acknowledge reality that cars are not going anywhere anytime soon and that cars are going to be a part of the solution along with the expansion of public transportation and bike lanes that doesn't get people killed and city planning around less urban sprawl and stop treating this stuff like it's a zero sum game.
It boggles my mind, that solutions so obvious and simple are somehow framed as untenable. If 3/4 streets in Manhattan were made walkable/bike-able only (except for wee hours for trash and whatnot) - we could still get everywhere - less death - less pollution - more little shops - more trees - healthier.
