How much public space we've surrendered to cars (Swedish artist Karl Jilg)
@stux To be fair, 150 years ago the same cartoon could have read "Look how much space we've surrendered to horse drawn carriages". The important thing is being able to power our transportation sustainably so in 150 years the cartoon doesn't read look how much of our city we've surrendered to the ocean. #sustainable #renewables #EV #commonsense #globalwarming
@treekeeper @stux I mean yesss... but there are old clips showing people milling about on foot, and bikes, and carriages, and trams - all using the roads at the same time because it wasn't so incredibly dangerous as it is now.
@sarajw @treekeeper @stux I have those pictures for an exemple if you want(same place in Prague. In front of the train station)

@xVAF @treekeeper @stux Right? Even with early cars around, the roads are far less stressful. Then, there were far fewer people in general...

I was thinking of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEvB_ZIWtAg

@sarajw @treekeeper @stux i mean early cars don't seem much dangerous cause there is so few of them. And in the USA there are cities that didn't grow much (less 100k in 100 years) had Public transport and decided to destroy it and put in roads. You can also have big cities with great public transport and few cars in them.
