From the hosts of The War on Cars podcast, a searing indictment of how cars ruin everything—and what we can do to fight back
When the very first cars rolled off production lines, they were a technological marvel, predicted to make life easier and better for all Americans; yet a hundred years later, that dream is running on empty.
Instead of unbounded freedom, the never-ending proliferation of automobiles has delivered a host of costs, among them the demolition of our neighborhoods, towns, and cities to make way for car infrastructure; an epidemic of violent death; countless hours lost in traffic; isolation from our fellow human beings; and the ongoing destruction of the natural world. Globally, SUVs alone now emit more carbon than the nations of Germany, South Korea, or Japan.
That’s why we need Life After Cars. Through historical records, revealing interviews, and unflinching statistics, Sarah Goodyear and Doug Gordon, hosts of the podcast The War on Cars, and former host Aaron Naparstek unpack the scale of damage that cars cause, the forces that have created our current crisis and are invested in perpetuating it, and the way that the fight for better transportation is deeply linked to the fight for a more equitable and just society.
Cars as we know them today are unsustainable—but there is hope. Life After Cars will arm readers with the tools they need to implement real, transformative change, from simply raising awareness to taking a stand at public forums. It’s past time to radically rethink—and shrink—society’s collective relationship with the automobile. Together, let’s create a better Life After Cars.

All well and good if you live in a city with adequate public transport, but try living in a rural town with no public transport, not even a taxi or Uber. And it’s even more impossible without cars if you live on a farm/ranch.

“tyranny”? You mean one of the greatest contributors to the common man’s freedom, convenience and mobility?
I do hope the reader was at least well compensated.

@Acanthrohu. Yes, it is about cities.
Changing the policies that make cars the ONLY option in many urbanm areas.
No one is “coming for your car” in Bumfuck West Texas.

This is subsidized globalist programming as they remove the freedom to travel in preparation for a panopticon control grid world system. Electric cars are an interim measure as they can control those remotely. 15 minute cities are being erected to keep us confined to a ‘Hunger Games’ style zone and in their future, only the uber rich elites will be allowed to travel including on commercial flights which is why you are seeing so much propaganda that puts flying in a bad light.

More globalist garbage.
This stuff is the tyranny and it’s revolting.
This has nothing to do with cars, neighborhoods, or the planet (whatever that means) and everything to do with control and limiting our freedom.
Very glad to see our community call it out for the bullshit it is.

“No one is coming for your car”. That’s exactly what this is. They want full control. Commie dicks.

“When you’re accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.”
Demonstrated yet again.

Don’t argue with the rightwing conspiracy theorists, who think that we can only be free by paying money to our corporate overloads, just seed.
