The document discusses some of the disadvantages of car-based transportation systems and proposes alternative modes of transportation. It notes that car-based systems waste space, materials, and resources through traffic jams, accidents, and pollution. It advocates rethinking transportation to be more efficient like ants which travel in single file without arguments. It proposes exploring human and pedal powered options like rail systems, bike lanes, and carousels to reduce waste and pollution while improving community interaction and public health.

Rethinking Transportation-Purpose? Who is smarter: Ants or Humans?
Ants Traffic jam Travel on single file Do not take up more space and materials than necessary Do not pollute the air that they breathe while traveling to and from their places of work (source of food) When they bump into each other, they do not argue, fight and sometimes kill; no road rage Instead, they bow at each other
Space occupied
DISADVANTAGES OF CAR-BASED TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM WASTE: SPACE, Square meters METALS, RUBBER, PLASTIC, COST: CAR-FUEL-viz rice Money >>>: INSURANCE, MAINTENANCE ACCIDENTS: DEATHS, INJURY, DAMAGE AIR POLLUTION Our insistence at individual mobility has resulted in serious collective immobility
Waste of Water, STRESS, LOSS OF PRODUCTIVITY AND TIME WITH FAMILY - CONCRETE- LOSS OF PERCOLATION UNHEALTHY LIFESTYLE - DEPLETION OF MOUNTAINS - LOSS OF SCARCE LAND (FOR URBAN FARMING)
SOCIOLOGY INERTIA OF COLLECTIVE INSANITY THINKING OUT OF THE BOX JUMP OUT-TURN IT UPSIDE DOWN- SHAKE IT PROGRESS IN HUMAN THOUGHT AND CIVILIZATION
CAR-OUSEL? PEDAL? Use excess manpower
Human power Discount Sense of fun Sense of community and human interaction Sometimes words have to be a little wild,
Law? Rep Act 6957 (BOT Law), Rule 2, Sec. 2.2 (b) rail-based projects, (c) non-rail based facilities (e.g., bike lanes, navigable waterways)

Those of have less in wheels must have more in roads. Is a city made for cars or for people? Our insistence at individual mobility has resulted in serious collective immobility; Principle:
Prototype: School of the Seas
Pathwalk No Motor Vehicle Zone
Filipino Design Prototype of a CAROUSEL: Example is the best teacher
Karusel : Indigenous Prototype
Prototype of Man-Powered Mini-Train PINOY Karusel -- U Tube RAIL
Before the power of the combustion engine -- ___ ? Before __ Power? was ____ power Sometimes words have to be a little wild because they are the assault of thoughts upon the unthinking.
