And that still solves not all that much because you still have to feed the city by fleet of trucks, and still need to have a fleet of vans to deliver all of that to the stores you now walk or cycle to.
- hyperhopper 3y agoAre you insinuating a single truck carrying supplies for _thousands_ to a store is even remotely comparable to _thousands_ of cars driving to the store? You're comment can be distilled to "well the solution is many orders of magnitude better than the status quo, but it's not perfect so it's equally bad"
- anlsh 3y agoNot much? Do you drive? Do you see the number of consumer vehicles on the road versus the number of trucks/delivery vehicles? If we could work towards a huge reduction in consumer vehicles on the road, even if we just replaced them all with busses, that'd be a huge improvement in gas consumption, traffic, (sub)urban sprawl, and more.
