to make cars lighter, fuel efficient, etc., but never questions why the
emphasis on cars and not on public transport. The current system is OK just
needs lots and lots of high tech gadgetry.
Never heard Lovins speak out against SUVs, suburban sprawl, etc.
I forget which election it was, but there was a candidate for U.S.
President (from Oklahoma?): Fred Harris, one of whose platform
planks was to change the zoning laws so that persons lived closer
to where they worked so that transportation overhead on the
U.S. economy would be minimized.
Who's Fred Harris? Huh?

Subject: [Futurework] Lovins on oil and transport and future works
FWers -
Here is a 1995 essay on a hybrid car by the Lovinses. It
identifies and takes on the political and economic forces
arrayed against the future. Along the way it takes up the
question of oil and Iraq.
Comments?
