RE: Electric Car Sharing Service Launches in Singapore

in #singapore7 years ago

sorry to break it to you.... if you want

We can expect air quality to improve, reduced road noise and a better climate with no direct carbon emissions. Now that will be a great outcome!

better get a bike and stop over-consuming, sure there will be less noise and no direct carbon emission from cars, but you would still have to produce and distribute electricty which does affect the environment,

Success with this initiative may also lead to the adoption of other forms of electric vehicles - buses, trucks, etc.

we just need trains... busses and trucks are great too, but unless we drive down the need for everything there will always be over consumption, in the past people were few and still they did a great job of sustaining local production, trade brought abundance to some, as did military ventures, unless we think of the human condition there won't be improvement, whichever technology is implemented the driver needs to update his operating system :D

cheers to the #challnge30days and @dragosroua ;)
I owe my blogging beginnings to him and his initiative :)

Thank you for your detailed response.

Bike usage has increased significantly; especially with the introduction of app-based bike sharing services. Not always practical with our warm & rainy weather.

Where it is economically viable to operate the train network, more tracks & stations are being built. There will still be a role for buses & trucks. Best they be electric.
