City CNN Covers Carless Local Family
My TV boyfriend, Anderson Cooper, just ran a segment on Alan Durning, the Sightline Institute blogger whose five-person family gave up their car earlier this year. (Go to the link that says “Save the Planet, Ditch Your Car” on the left side of the page.) It’s nice to see carless living getting some positive press for once, instead of the trite, faux-contrarian bike-bashing that has been the local media’s only response.
Well, the thing is, when others go carless, it makes those using cars feel bad about their own actions.
If we were in a more transit/rail connected society like Europe, they wouldn't have as many problems.
