I would like to live in a car free city. Deliveries don't need to be made by trucks. Smaller carts could be used to move items for building construction. Concrete could be mixed on the spot for buildings or maybe smaller mixers could be used to transport the concrete. Where were the cars when the pyramids were built (that is if you don't believe UFO's exist)? Using smaller delivery vehicles would mean employing more delivery personnel which I think would be good for expanding jobs.

Having gasoline or diesel powered emergency vehicles wouldn't be a problem. How many would be on the road at one time? Not many. Police could patrol using current EVs like the Segway or Badsey scooters as they already do in some places. Of course they could use bicycles too.

I really liked the book "Ecotopia". It is about states in the western US forming their own country based on environmental principles.

I really want my own house. I'm living in a new apartment now and the layout is great. Its only problem is the walls are not well insulated for sound and the building shakes when people run up the stairs. If I could live in a quiet building that didn't shake and allowed me to play really loud music that wouldn't disturb the neighbors I'd stay in an apartment or condominium in the center of a town. None of the apartments I've visited are that quiet. It's too bad that there are no building codes that would require buildings to be well insulated against noise and vibration.
