Transportation
Added: Jun 5th, 2008
We have to build our Light Rail, Electric Cars, Pneumatic tubes and even reconsider exquisitely efficient Blimps. And especially promote and encourage however possible 2 wheel transportation.
It takes 2K gallons of oil to build each car. 2-wheeled vehicles take less.
We need to design and build over-and-unders, which will allow an uninterrupted flow on certain key roadways.
With the internet and cell phones, we could use car pooling when possible, and may be able to do much of our work from home online.
Pneumatic tubes for goods transport may be highly efficient and should be on our wish lists.
We must help fund Hybrid Retrofits as opposed to new vehicles.
