I hate cars.
Now generally when this gets brought up is perceived as a joke, but I am not fucking kidding.
Those 1 to 3-ton hunks of rolling metal are the bane of my existence. I hate them so much and I’d love to tell you why.
1. Cars are terrible for the environment. We know this, we’ve known this. They release 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide every year.
2. Cars create communities that are not human centric. Look outside your house if you live in the city or suburbs. Now pretend that the roads are empty pits. It’s not fun.
3. They’re dangerous. 1.19 million people each year die due to car accidents according to the World Health Organization.
4. We have better options and we’ve had better options for decades. Trains! I want trains people!!
5. 10-12 MILLION acres of land in the U.S alone are comprised of public roads and highways, an area the size of my home state. 4.2 million of which are highways alone.
6. ALSO PARKING LOTS!! 9 million acres of land in the U.S is just parking lots.
Anyway. Cars suck. I’ll die on this hill.
