    And another one: push cities (by carrot and sticks, financial incentives and penalties) to change their layouts and designs to be humans first, 15 minute cities, whatever you want to call them. Pedestrian areas and cycling infrastructure over cars, mixed use building areas, let’s get rid of the suburb rot. It makes it that people don’t need a car and if you don’t need a car, why have an expensive piece of crap that costs a fortune to use and maintain? Cars will still be allowed, because of course. It’s just that priorities have to change. People first, cyclists first. Cities will become more quiet, people will walk and cycle more, they’ll be outside more, healthier, happier, safer, richer, safer.
