    Electric cars are an attempt to save the automotive industry, not the planet. Demand public mass transportation and walkable cities instead.

        There’s a vicious circle where the less public service you’ll set in a rural areas the more people will move away from it. If you want people to moove back from dense to rural areas you got to give them some decent services.

          You can also have bus services to train stations. The busses would just need to be less frequent, so you would need to plan your travel further ahead of time. There is no reason we can’t service most of America with some public transport options.
