"Designing for humans and not automobiles... makes everybody’s lives richer—in the literal and figurative sense—because it gives them access to jobs, education and health care without needing the €12,000 a year that comes with the cost of car ownership.” yaleclimateconnections.org/2023/06/evs-al…

There are 2 billion parking spaces in US, 7 for every registered vehicle & nearly 4 for every living human. Defending that parking — against homes for humans, against safe streets for children, against transit and bike lanes, against climate action — should not be our priority.
