    I do feel like it was a huge mistake for cars to become as popular as they are: they consume so much energy, produce so many emissions, and take up so much space

    And now modern living depends so much upon them that it’s an enormous endeavor to wind this back :S

      I’d say it’s an enormous discomfort and an opportunity to create a meaningful living for all - somewhat along the lines of what “antiwork” represents.

        Yep, it’d be a tragedy (adding to the tragedy of the pandemic) if we ignored this opportunity to really consider fundamental improvements in the way humans live
