Lemme guess - the politicians got involved, right? Or some transit system set up by two or more governmental agencies?!
WHAT would do a LOT for the emissions from auto’s and trucks would be to make better electric autos and trucks and then FIND SOMEPLACE to plug ‘em in - hence my pushing for nuclear energy! Might not help with traffic congestion, but at least would make the entire area “greener”.
And, fwiw, I am a “Greenie” - I’m all for conservation and using grass (bamboo) instead of other woods for flooring and stuff, but Solar and Wind power are just too far out from being practicable, and pose their own environmental problems that I just don’t understand the reluctance to use Nuclear Power!
Hell We have Two Nuke’s here in N.C. and one operational and another set to come on line in South Carolina in the near future!
