I don’t want fossil fuel cars

I don’t want electric cars

I want fast trains so I can go visit Grandma

(she’s a sweet old lady and I’d like to visit more often without killing the planet, my wallet, or a pedestrian)

    Yes, so much this, tho pedestrians are kinda an optional goal in the grand scheme of things. Maybe let’s frame it as saving animals.

      It pulls many carriages, full of people, using far, far less fuel per passenger. It is also not unrealistic to electrify the rail network

    Just use the internet. No transportation needed, you can meet with anyone in any world you like, whenever you want in an instant, like teleportation. You can even be who you want to be. With internet you actually never need to leave the house ever again.
