Some fellow anti-car folks are upset about Jalopnik Editor-in-Chief Rory Carroll's piece doubting whether the US will go much beyond 6% adoption of electric cars/SUVs. But they seem to be missing this quote:

"I personally think we need to be thinking in terms of radically reimagining and drastically shrinking the global vehicle fleet as opposed to just replacing todays fleet with an electric one. I don’t see a way for us to consume our way out of climate catastrophe."

What If Americans Say 'No' To An EV Revolution?

Allowing the "free market" to decide if EVs take-off seems a little risky

@capntransit this is way better than what showed up on Jlpnk today. Muricans wont buy EVs because they aren’t big enough and want a third row of seating.
@TheOverheadWire Yeah, I saw that! We're not going to save our grandchildren with electric vehicles…
@capntransit With the #ClimateAction / emergency directives and adopted #VisionZero plans, I would expect to hear more about #VMTreduction from cities, and see DOTs optimizing for person-trips. Without some mandate to manage those two variables, all of the declarations and plans are hollow.
@enobacon They're pretty hollow - I haven't seen anything like that so far!
