A reminder that highways don't have a monopoly on massive environmental and social impacts--trains can do it too!
@getalifemike @colby use existing transport corridors? even if it requires displacing cars and/or is more expensive or longer. Detour around world heritage sites, which is what seems to have particularly upset people here. I don't know the particular project and if it's financially feasible to do it another way, what the costs and benefits are etc. But certainly more than one way any project can be done.
@colby how do we open up areas for carbon-free transport if we don’t build through natural areas? Air travel is incredibly carbon heavy, rivers don’t go everywhere, etc.
