        I own an EV, and bicycles. I sacrificed much battling climate change, even starting a business towards my goals. Refusing much higher paid employment opportunities. I think you misinterpreted my comment entirely.

          I own an EV, and bicycles. … I think you misinterpreted my comment entirely.

          Then I would ask you to clarify your comment. If EVs aren’t any sort of solution, it doesn’t make any sense for you to own one.

            The problem with cars isn’t solely because of the internal combustion engine. Replacing ICE cars with EV’s doesn’t solve the problems associated with the infrastructure and city planning we’ve built around cars.

            EV’s aren’t the solution. Trains are.

              I have no interest in urban planning. Trains are not a feasible option for me, as the overwhelming majority of my destinations are located in areas without sufficient population density to justify rail infrastructure.

              We share only the environmental concerns, not your social preference for public transit.
