We all need to go somewhere
But we still need to move around, and so we still drive cars to and from work, visits and vacations, and we still need our supermarkets stocked with food and other items, so the ships and trucks are still hauling our next purchase to us from the other side of the globe. All this traffic causes, besides emissions, traffic congestion. This is a big problem in cities around the world, and commuting long distances is a normal way to get to work. In the EU the average driving commute has gone down from nearly 13.000 km a year in 2000 to 11.300 km in 2019. LINK |
