“This means a wholesale switch towards electric mass transit,”
His argument is to move towards electric mass transit, Which clearly won’t work everywhere. In fact, it won’t work in most places.
I think they must be having one of those nerd arguments.
Using coal for electricity, for example, helped change the world, and had positive effects, but we want to move beyond that.
Reducing the need for automobiles is definitely worth the effort. That doesn’t mean we will illuminate them of course, by a long shot.
What makes you think I do?
I wrote that the positive contribution of automobiles should be considered and not denied. Why do you think distribution of malaria medication and child care was not improved by automobiles widely used in medical care and logistics?
