It's true that cars (and the combustion engine in general) served an incredible purpose in our technological development, but so did the coal fired steam engines that used to run trains.
Ag (can't help it) is one of the biggest areas where we need to get out of petrochem reliance. It's tech that's past it's prime and beginning to act at cross purpose. Buy local from hardcore sustainable producers, yall. Start a community farm if you don't have one. It'll be dead easy to find someone to operate it....lot's of folks at the walmart wishing they could have kept farming instead.
