    Less “tech” and more investing in efficiency.

    Buying old vehicles at above-market rates, and tearing them down to recycle/recover the metals, rather than letting them continue to burn gas & oil.

    Knocking down older homes that aren’t insulated and rebuilding multi-unit residential buildings that surpass existing building codes to reduce the energy footprint of building and operating a home. If every house that you knock down has between three and six apartments, a big part of the housing crisis in cities disappears.

    Investing in optimizing transport. There’s no reason you shouldn’t be able to walk to the nearest major intersection and get picked up by a multi-passenger vehicle that gets you and a half dozen others to the major intersection closest to where you’re all going.
