Does carsharing really have an impact? 🚘 We get this question quite often: how can we claim to be driven by #sustainability when we promote the use of cars? Well, we're promoting the use of shared cars instead of individual cars. 🤔 Why is that relevant you might ask? Because most of our cities are overcrowded and overburdened by cars, that remain parked 95% of the time. And unused cars take up precious urban space that could be used for pedestrian lanes, parks, or playgrounds. So, what’s the impact of #carsharing then? According to the latest ADEME study: 👉 1 shared car can replace up to 8 cars 👉 1 shared car can free up to 3 parking spots 👉 Carsharing users tend to to rely on more sustainable transportation options: biking (+22%), public transports (18%) & train (+29%) 🌎 For Earth Day, we wanted to imagine how our cities would look like if cars didn’t dominate them. Take a look below! 👀 👇 Ps: thanks Marco Te Brömmelstroet for inspiring us to showcase before/after pictures of what cities could be like with more sustainable #mobility options!

Thanks for the shoutout! Let's work together. We at The Lab of Thought 🤯 have a nice project that could fit with your mission. Get in contact with us to see how we might work together: rethink@thelabofthought.co (cc: JONNE KUYT)
