Paris: Where 66% of 4% of the citizens vote to block cars from 500 streets and make them greener, while 96% of the citizens are confident, that there is no chance for a different result anyway.

Or in other words: The car lobby managed to mobilize about 1.3%.

@squeevening @Darfash I grew up in Wyoming, I’m right there with yas. Even in Denver with semi decent mass transit I‘ve waited at a bus stop for an hour and a half in a snow storm (pre cell phone days). They just have no comprehension of what a #carban would entail for so many people. Plus all that energy they expend whining about cars could be spent working on an actual solution.
