> Here's a conundrum: Cars kill ~30,000 people per year in the USA. Vehicle emissions cause ~58,000 premature deaths. That's a problem. Not bicycles, not E-bikes, not bike sharing programs, not motorcycles, not skateboards, not rollerblades – Cars!

Let's also consider how many lives that fuel-based transportion saves. How many people would die of starvation if you outlawed internal combustion engines? How much would clothes cost? Food? I'll remind you electric engines cannot easily transport 1000-tons of goods across a transcontinental railroad.
