    Yeah, if they built cars people don’t want with batteries smaller than people want to buy, the wheels could just be as bad as normal cars.

    If everyone had switched to driving corollas and civics in the year 1990, we would have less micro plastics and a way cooler environment but… people hate each other and don’t give a fuck.










  • The additional incremental emissions are tiny relative to a new car. If we could convince the entire planet to keep cars for 30 years (jk only rich countries need convincing) the world would be a better place.

    I’ll add that with how streets are in the US, even new cars are not getting good milage. Mine is much newer but when my longest drive is like 20 miles and most of my time is <5 mile drives on surface streets…I get about 20 mpg…same as my car from the 90s.

    It sounds like the implied sequence from your original post was in fact:

    1. You privately had a concern
    2. You mentioned it to noone and it had no impacts on anyone else
    3. A stranger came up and told you to just do X

    Did I get that right? That’s what it sounds like from the mind your own business angle.
