@SheDrivesMobility @davidho Where should people who are forced to have cars and want to be as environmentally friendly as possible charge their cars?

Preferably in their garage. At the charging hub. At the grocer. On their property

@Openhuman @SheDrivesMobility @davidho I live in a areas with big buildings like 10 floors it’s of the city I live for rent. I don’t have fast charging so a store lot doesn’t work too. All your options are not going to work

hunpel

@Openhuman @SheDrivesMobility @davidho I need a public available lot where I can rest my car for 3-4h regularly

hunpel

@Openhuman @SheDrivesMobility @davidho and I indeed care about the environment and my car is the smallest possible. I considered all other options and they are not feasible.
I don’t want to be played against other interests. We need a middleground here.

Openhuman

@hunpel @SheDrivesMobility @davidho I don’t now your exakt circumstances.so this is not for you

I know that problems cannot be solved by individual action most of the time, but I would encourage for more alternatives so that you can for example stay mobile when getting sick or growing to old to drive.

I would accommodate and give quota for special needs

In your city this might be different

@Openhuman @SheDrivesMobility @davidho see nothing I disagree with I researched 2 month before buying the care. I have specific area I have to live due to my family situation. This area is not connected with the schooling district of the kids so I can choose 30 minutes car or 2:30h bus with unreliable connections.
I just can’t do this with a 4 year old regularly. And I would love to use public transportation and get rid of the car

hunpel

@Openhuman @SheDrivesMobility @davidho the problem why I responded in the first place is: I have the electric car to be progressive.
Now other progressives want to tell me I should not be able to use this car because of parking.
I believe this is not the best idea tbh.

hunpel

@Openhuman @SheDrivesMobility @davidho especially because we don’t need a lot of this charging lots and can still get rid of the rest of them. I am pro less cars especially in the inner cities

Openhuman

@hunpel @SheDrivesMobility @davidho it’s about taking away additional space for the charger from the pedestrian path so that this becomes unusable for someone walking which can be a problem often solved when done right.

hunpel replied to Openhuman

@Openhuman @SheDrivesMobility @davidho I don’t see how the picture is showing this. The sidewalk just is the same. But I if so I would agree

Openhuman replied to Openhuman

@hunpel @SheDrivesMobility @davidho

I’m happy that you choose a small ev.

Whoever sincerely tries is good enough for me.

i think a lot of charging problems will sort themselves out in the future.

It would also be totally climatunfriendly when Evs won’t be used their estimated lifetime just because charging standards are not supported by the industry anymore.

So yeah good enough

@hunpel @SheDrivesMobility @davidho

Don’t you have a Parking garage or Minimum parking requirements

hunpel

@Openhuman @SheDrivesMobility @davidho the lots which are available near by are to less for the amount of people and had been designing in a time where barley cars existed in that area

hunpel

@Openhuman @SheDrivesMobility @davidho and it’s not even my problem. I have 2 small kids so I need the car. I just can’t have a private way of charging. I need this street based stations or I step back to combustion. Which I really don’t want due to environmental reasons

@hunpel @davidho supermarkets, parking spaces, parking garages, at work, at the gym... I am as important as you guys are. Even if I don´t own a car, I have the right to live in a liveable surrounding.

hunpel

@SheDrivesMobility @davidho what you tell me is: I don’t want to have a portion of the existing lots for loading my car which especially tells@me I should abondon the live with my kids. If you really care we can have a short 1:1 and you will see I need this kind of infrastructure to exist ..

hunpel

@SheDrivesMobility @davidho and again I don’t want to have a car either !

@hunpel
Did you consider asking your local politicians to please improve public transport so you're no longer forced to have a car? I assume they can do more for you than a stranger on the Internet from Germany?
Edit: Katja might have several recommendations what actually works though since that's their expertise.
