   The editors of Scientific American have written an opinion piece saying we need to move away from #cars to #activetransport because of local & carbon #pollution, road crash death & injury and how it restricts access to life for so many- the young, the elderly, the poor & disabled.

     There is NO solution to climate change, environmental degradation, resources depletion etc that doesnt have active and electrified public transport and the removal of private cars and aircraft.

     Ecars are the distraction ensuring the changes we need don't occur and are ensuring the continual destruction of the biosphere and the disappointment is they're so strongly defended even in here.
