Looking to build community and make Oakland a better place.

Also, maybe we come up with, like, two more holidays, say in the early and late spring, that involve walking around the neighborhood and talking to your neighbors?

The regional rail report says it could be a 30 minute Oak to SJ trip with high speed rail. 65 minutes just with electrification, straightening, and improvements. mtc.ca.gov/sites/defaul...

Just did. Considering they also have import tariffs it looks like a $15k EV would be possible in America without tariffs. I am not advocating for this, but would definitely speed up the EV transition.

The transition can't come soon enough.
Do you think we could achieve 50% sales if we let Chinese EV's into the US and Americans could buy electric cars that cost half the price of a comparable gas car?
Would the trade off be worth seeing a reduction in the American auto industry which is 3% of GDP?

People somewhat reasonably assume that the rules governing our built environments are built on careful assessment of the best available science and rigorous analysis of tradeoffs but in reality it's like 85% vibes.
