> [@post gazette](#): > > Group calls for strategies to get us out of our cars > Thursday, September 20, 2007 > By Don Hopey, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette > We drive too much, and a new report says that unless we start to reduce urban and suburban sprawl the increasing emissions from our expanding vehicle use will negate other technology-based efforts to combat global warming. > > The report by the Urban Land Institute, Smart Growth America and other national and state organizations warns that, if sprawling development continues, the total miles driven will increase 59 percent by 2030, and the carbon emissions that increase produces will overwhelm expected gains from vehicle efficiency and low-carbon fuels. > > The report released today in Washington, D.C., recommends that metropolitan growth strategies are needed to curb automobile emissions, including an increased focus on “compact development” areas. Such developments are close to the urban core, denser than sprawling suburban development, and provide a mix of uses that give residents an option of walking or biking or shorter drives to business, commercial and recreational destinations. > > “The impact of smart growth is profound, not only because of the increased miles driven by so many people but also because most of those people are also spending a lot more time stuck in traffic, moving slowly if at all, while the gas keeps burning,” said Brian Hill, president of the Pennsylvania Environmental Council. > > “Being able to spend less time behind the wheel will benefit our health, our pocketbooks and the environment. We urge Gov. Rendell and our state legislators to make smart growth a key strategy to mitigating global warming in Pennsylvania.” > > Pennsylvania residents are driving more than ever before – up 50 percent since 1980 – causing increases in vehicle emissions which account for roughly one-third of all emissions of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that fuels global warming. Only part of that increase is the result of population growth. this shit needs to stop, these motherfuckers are so full of shit. you ride a fucken bike to work… not me pal. my recreation is cars and i will do it as much as i want. ---

the earth is gonna go in its natural cycles whether we exist on it or not. In a billion years who the fuck is gonna care? not us cause we won’t be anything anymore. watch the history channel, we’ve been on earth for such a short period of it’s life it doesn’t even matter Right now it’s like the last second of the last day of earth. It’s been around for 5 billion years, we’re not making an effect on it ---

I can kinda understand you not caring, because you’re a stupid ignorant fuck… but why do you think its cool to go out of your WAY to make things even worse? I mean dont get me wrong, i have no problem with making race cars that get shit gas mileage. They aren’t the problem, and it’s for a purpose. It’s the people that drive around in SUV’s and pickup’s that they dont need to be driving getting 15-18 MPG when they could be in a car getting double that. They are the problem. But I still dont get why you harbor such resentment for people that just want to make the planet better. ---
