      Lol, trash reasoning. “Extremists” that want to start building communities that dont require you to drive everywhere. Just because evs are slightly better then gas doesnt mean its good to keep making cars a centralizing point we build our society around.

          It ain’t that hard,

          High density places:

          lower parking availability, increase public transport availability and frequency.

          Low density places:

          They need their cars, they can keep them.

          Remove zoning restrictions, and parking requirements

          so there is more mixture of commercial and residential places shortening transport distance, allowing for even avoiding public transport and just walking/biking replacing this.

          More biking infraestructure.

          Fair taxes to car owners,

          that means, othe people not having to support the huge car projects that cost more than they can get from the taxes they do on cars.

          Also regulations on environmental design of cars, basically gaining back the progress we had done on car efficiency that was taken back by everyone wanting an SUV instead of a turismo.

          :)

              Really not a choice, carbon emissiosn have to stop. EVs dont do that. Urban trees are not going to revese climate change. Wow, you’re saying people need to keep lowering denisity.

              Realistically, EVs are useful as a stopgap solution. They could be used to cover the transition as we expand public transit like EV busses, trains, subways, etc.
