If we’re talking about “society” then the way forward is to get rid of cars almost entirely and have extremely robust public transport. Not make new cars.
Yes but let’s say, in the interim, we make cars that are more efficient and better for the environment, and make them affordable enough that everyone can use one.
Maybe, but you cannot expect an entire societal mindset to change overnight, and for many, it’s never going to change. Society in many places can’t even agree that women are equal to men, which is like, step one for any other equality mindset going down the line, for example. Because it’s been engrained into culture.
Even places with better mass transit than the US like Europe or Japan still have cars. Mas transit works great in some areas and terrible in others. Which is also why its going to be impossible to make it work 100% of the time for 100% of situations.
Even before cars, we had “individual transport” with things like carts and horses etc. mass Transit isn’t even an old concept.
