And a more sustainable transportation network would require less roads, and therefore less overall maintenance. Look at Calgary....this city is so stretched out, a great portion of its budget goes to mantaining roads. If the city was more compact, it could spend its money on less roads, but ones of higher quality.
why do people still think the being green means you have to give things up?

I read the report, I dont debate left leaning thinkers unless I have all the facts, many years going to school in Edmonton and takings English classes in the Socialistic UofA Arts Department taught me that.
To respond to you, I walk to work, Live on the 5th floor of a 6 story condo and rarely drive with the exception of 1 on Saturday and 1 on Suday and occasional trip to see family/friends.
I also know the realities and in responding in this thread indicates that you are in favour of the British report which is why I indicated the % of GDP numbers since it will cost something what are people willing to pay or give up.
