 The more vehicles we manufacture, leads to the more roads or multi-lane highways that we have to build to accompany those vehicles. Highways is a big factor when it comes to land use because they not only take up a lot  space but also  hosts the world to the leading carbon dioxide, fossil fuel drinking machines that drive on the daily. Climate change is a worldwide thing because in the UK around 30 percent of their emissions come from vehicles with 18 percent of that coming from cars. Their emissions have increased due to people driving a whole lot more. They tried to cut fuel but it only encouraged the car usage whenever they was trying to have everybody take more trips on foot, bike, or by public transport. They like the use of electric cars but believe that its too late. I simply agree because unless everyone ditched their gas vehicles like within a month then we could possibly have a chance but we know that's not happening.  Think about how much money we would have if we stopped the building of major highways, like we are talking big time cash for the use of something that will benefit the community. - Ky'on Bass

  1. I feel like we should start making electric cars a bit cheaper to make people want to buy it, so it helps out the environment/climate. I wanna we should try to either use electric cars or use buses a lot. Highways should just stay how they are only time we should mess with highways is when they are in need of repair.
