If someone had told you that this would be the case in the 1960s, they probably would have jumped for joy. It’s more a positive signal for how much emissions technology has advanced.
Obviously it’s something worth looking at and improving, still, but it’s definitely not a sign that things are getting worse, but rather the opposite.

- tialaramex 7y agoNo. When things roll very tiny pieces break off both the rolling thing and the thing rolled over. If we want to travel by rolling (which seems like a yes) along the ground then that's going to produce PM 2.5 air pollution. Flying is definitely worse, for at least the medium term and perhaps forever, and magnetic levitation is so expensive you're just not going to do it at scale. The effect from pushing a stroller will be greatly (much more than linearly) smaller than from a goods delivery truck or a railway train, but it's there. We just have to consider this when deciding what's a good idea.
