If you recognize the need for a less car-centric attitude toward city planning you will probably be interested in backing this project.

I think we had a discussion about this film not too long ago. The majority opinion on this forum was positive and quite a few corrected my "20 billion new cars" on the streets! LOL! I hope the film is made and put on Netflix.

Now that I have some time to think about it, we need as many people fighting for public transit in particular the bus since this is under attack. You want to see more cars off the street, construct more commuter and lightrail lines. A country like the Netherlands has an equal number of people in public transit as they do on bicycles but you never hear of this.

They now have only 5 days to go, and need less than $400.00 to make their goal of $50,000. So it only takes a little to get them over the top.

At least go and check out the video.

I guess donating the price of a movie ticket would make sense. Pay $10 now, and watch the movie free in a few months on netflix.
