    The financial, spatial and carbon economy of motorised private transport is inefficient, including its infrastructure. Opportunity costs of missing climate action due to economical reliance on private transport, spatial constraints of land use for traffic and inefficient housing (private transport induced sprawl) are just two examples for that.

    Climate change fuels flooding frequency and severity, so fueling climate change with fossil fuelled private transport is irresponsible.
