Cool, too bad it isn't sustainable. If life was about doing everything you want whenever you want and carry a lot of useless junk around without having to worry about side effects we'd have won the game by now

And the goalposts move again. We were talking about the convenience, not the sustainability. If you want to argue that the inconvenience is a necessary price for environmental sustainability, sure, that's a valid position, but don't pretend that there's no convenience cost

It's interesting that I've been downvoted to -3 for factually detailing how cars are in fact useful. Shooting the messenger won't change the facts

> too bad it isn't sustainable

It isn’t? Even with EVs? Or your point is that only poor/non-rich people shouldn’t be allowed to own cars?

> you want and carry a lot of useless junk

Such as food and other groceries?
