How SUVs conquered the world – at the expense of its climate
I guess I should go ahead and kick off our news/materials share. I was sharing a lot last year that I was asked by the students to sit back and let them share…So I will do that once your posts start coming in. For now, here’s one great article on SUVs and how evil they are for the climate – something we all know but there’s some new data here. Feel free to leave your comments below!

Wow! Really interesting read Deniz. I actually shared this with my partner. He’s been doing an internship with the City Council about parking in Monterey. Anyway, he’s learned a lot about how basically in the US we don’t build cities for people, we build them for cars. Policies on new housing and development, new businesses etc are deeply tied to cars because policies require that there are a certain amount of spaces to park within a certain distance of the housing/business. We really make everything about cars. The last part of the article really reminded me of his research.
