    the slow changes is exactly why we bought into the idea.

    And slow changes can bring us back.

    It also can’t be easily undone or changed, even in a progressive society.

    Who said it had to be easy? Most things worth doing aren’t.

    It is more important that the goal will serve us and that it will bring us value. That we are unwilling to postpone longer before it becomes even harder.

    The Netherlands chose to do this when it was easy (easier anyway). Canada and the US made the choice to postpone then.

    Other nations are chosing now, should we join them now? Or should he wait until the damage is even harder to undo? How many more must we slaughter and maim in the streets? How much more must we pollute our environment? Do we chose to act, or do we wait until action is forced upon us?

    Evey road in north american must be resurfaced every 10-50 years. Car don’t last much longer that 20. That means without any additional resources, this can be done in about 15 years.
