CARMAGEDDON How Cars Make Life Worse and What to Do About It

Christian Coulson provides a smooth performance of this timely discussion of the global culture of automobiles and their role in everyday life during a time of climate change and ever-expanding cities. Chicago-based journalist Daniel Knowles has subtitled this audiobook "How Cars Make Life Worse and What to Do About It." Listeners will find much to ruminate on. Coulson's British accent is smooth, and his tone sometimes emotional as he engages with this history of city planning and interstates; public transportation, cars, and government-mandated parking needs; and eye-opening facts and figures about automobiles. Listeners may even find themselves contemplating the prospect of planned living in a walkable community. M.B.K. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2023]
