I can't recommend this video highly enough. It gives an all too realistic assessment of what autonomous vehicles will do to our cities, and it's not good.

@breadandcircuses Hope it's ok to tag you on this; it seems like something you might be interested in.

I know that #EV are "better" than #ICE vehicles, but just fractionally when we need step-change.

Instead of promoting the replacement of ICE cars by EV cars, wouldn't it be far better to invest decent inclusive electrically powered public transport infrastucture?

Imagine how many batteries we could avoid manufacturing, and how much less the electical infrastructure would need upgrading if we did this.

It's not impossible - it just needs a change of mindset from a straight replacement with "less bad" to viewing the current #ClimateCrisis as a opportunity to do things "better".
