Cargo e-bikes generally have a battery capacity limit of around 25 miles (which batteries aren’t meant to be fully drained every time they’re used anyway).
Any suggestions that don’t include the use of cars in a carpool or moving?
Is “Fuck Cars” a pro-city/anti-rural philosophy?
while I agree with a lot of your post (certainly more informative than the others), I disagree that the issue could be easily solved. There is a lack of political will (at best) and an outright hostility (at worst) to the very idea of trains and public transportation.
What I tried to say is that it could easily be solved in the sense that the solution to your problem would be easy if your country would be willing to spend some money on infrastructure, but that will never happen simply because liberal democracy is incapable of doing anything to prevent the climate crisis, therefore it will never stop relying on cars.
Then is the point of this community just to vent frustrations without actually changing anything because its pointless? I mean that’s fine, I guess.
I mean, most of the communities regarding any kind of politics tend to be pointless in the sense they achieve nothing, that’s what I think of /r/antiwork for example. I don’t think you can fight back the lobby done my car manufacturers within a capitalist society if that’s what you’re asking. I’m here because I like seeing posts that reinforce and serve as facts about how poorly designed is the urban model that uses cars as its main transportation mechanism.
I am an odd mix of being a capitalist (anti-fascims, though) and an environmentalist (naturally, that includes tree-hugging, veganism, and minimalism). Political discussion has its place, but in the wrong forums just makes some of us feel out of place.
Well, this is a community about politics, so idk.
