In this episode, we delve into the pressing issue of our society's dangerous dependency on cars. Our relationship with cars is not just a bad habit; it's a toxic addiction that is harming our health, environment, and society at large. We explore how we got here, the environmental impacts, and the deep social inequalities exacerbated by our car-centric culture.

We reflect on the temporary shift during the COVID-19 pandemic, revealing a glimpse of a less car-dependent world. Expert insights, including those from Professor Tim Schwarren, highlight the urgency of breaking this habit and the need for a comprehensive transport policy that offers genuine alternatives to cars.

Join us as we discuss practical solutions, from investing in public transportation to rethinking urban design, and the crucial role of political will and public participation in driving systemic change towards a more sustainable and equitable future.
