When I was in elementary school, the cafeteria switched to disposable plastic trays because the paper ones hurt trees. Stupid, I know… but are today’s initiatives any better?

      What we need is easily accessible rental cars for when we really need them. Private cars and jets should never have been a thing…

        Much better is to eliminate the need for a car. Good public transport would make a massive difference.

        If you had 100% rentals, the amount of cars on the road stays the same because everyone needs the at the same rush hours.

        We should be incentivizing work from home. E.g. require an extra 1 hour of pay per for any employee that needs to be on site. We’d soon see how essential offices are.
