global warming is an existential threat that should affect our approach to just about every issue. To take it seriously, we would have to change the way we think about transportation, agriculture, development, water resources, natural disasters, foreign relations and more.

ha ha ha ha! I was just writing about the PRTs in the future? Well over at World Changing Jeremy Faludi just wrote another great piece on Personal Rapid Transit systems. And I'm obviously not the only one who is ga ga for these cutie transporters... there are already 21 comments, and most of them have WAY KEWL links on them.... like the funny SkyWeb Express who are so serious they have an animation! Also the amazing reference for all PRT-heads, the Innovative Transport Technologies. I think they're gong to look a little more egg-like, and not use wheels once they are finally mainstream, but it's great to see so much attention to them. I mean really, we let roads have a millennium, isn't it now time for something else?? |
