  • Also, the “more cars” on the photo (or even the “just as many cars” thing) doesn’t necessarily mean worse (or better): Solely focusing on actively generated pollution, I would pick 3 EVs over 1 intcomb car. Adding the pollution caused by manufacturing them and their batteries definitely changes the equation, and I’m not an expert enough to say which is better or worse, but the posted image just focuses a bit too much on the sheer numbers of vehicles.

    “Drive to a library” - After all those decades reading about US stuff, it still baffles me how many things we take here for granted in Europe. I don’t bat an eye when people measure distances in hours, I’m completely aware of the vast distances and the reliance on cars, and I still get surprised whenever I read about another mundane thing that’s not just easily accessible by walking (or taking short range public transport) in the states.
