New Urbanism vs urban sprawl
Pineporch replied to UrbanLegend's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning
It may be sooner than you think too. Just look at some nations that are rapidly becoming a large economic presence, ie: China. For a country that has 1.3 BILLION people, it would be a scary thought to imagine how long oil reserves would last considering the changing consumption rates. As it is, the amount of energy that Americans and Canadians squander in general is ridiculous. If all 6 billion people on this planet were to consume at the North American rate, we would need 3 or 4 earths in order to sustain the demand. Things really have to change fast. The harder it is to get oil, the more willing people will be to fight over it. -

^That's true, but in general, North Americans abhor rapid change. No matter what, it's going to be a long time until people catch on to that. Everyone knows that mass transit is just one step from communism! I live in a suburb in the maritimes, and it seems like every second vehicle on the road is a bloody SUV or soccer mom van. Even changing what kind of vehicles we drive would be a huge step in the right direction for the environment and the economy alike. -
