Know whatβs better for the planet than luxury electric cars by a factor of a gadzillion? Not actually constructing our entire social and economic geography around auto-mobility. Geography, not technology, is the key to sustainability.
@austinkocher agree with everything except the last sentence. Technology will still play a key role (it's what's allowing us to share ideas, after all, for one). I would say geo-specific technology. Subways make sense in a big city, but not rural America.
