“There were over 280 million electric mopeds, scooters, motorcycles and three-wheelers on the road last year. Their sheer popularity is already cutting demand for oil by a million barrels of oil a day”

    I’m one of those guys. Own an E-Bike that can only drive 25km/h, but it completely replaced my car for inner-city travel. I bought a bike trailer for grocery shopping and trips to the hardware store, for 500€, which is a blessing. For rainy days I’ve got a nice pair of rain legs. With my car I did 2-4 trips with it daily, now I’ve sat in a car only 10 times in the last 4 months and apart from some comfort benefits on stormy days it doesn’t really have any negative side for me to not own a car anymore
