“Are cars the new tobacco?” Douglas, Watkins, Gorman and Higgins, Journal of #PublicHealth 2011. A classic paper examining the parallels between tobacco and cars, health effects, dependence, and inter alia explaining why suggestions to improve the status quo make some people angry. I think about this paper often. EVs won’t be a panacea for many of the problems the authors list. #thewaroncars #waroncars https://doi.org/10.1093/pubmed/fdr032 #carsarethenewtobacco
