- Tesla, Inc. has a plan to convert the world to 100% renewable energy over 20 years while saving money compared to fossil fuels. In this episode, we’ll explore that plan in depth, then rebuild it so everyone in the world can enjoy affluence while restoring the lost half of life on Earth.
Edenicity merges permaculture and urbanism so that cities can provide a vastly higher quality of life while healing the planet. Learn more at / @edenicity

Calculations-Transportation Material Use
NYC has 6,700 subway cars that move 1,700,000,000 people per year,[1] so a subway car carries 690 passengers/day. It weighs 85,000 lb,[2] so it requires 85,000 ÷ 690 = 120 lb of material per person per ride.
The average US private car weighs 4,200 lb,[3] and carries about 4 passengers per day.[4] So it requires 4,200 ÷ 4 = 1,100 lb of material per person per trip: 9x more than a subway car.
The R40 subway car spent 41 years in service.[5] The rule of thumb for passenger car longevity used to be 10 years, but AARP reports that this has crept up slightly.[6]
Calculations-Transportation Energy Use
Japan’s best metros use 92 J/(m passenger), 32⨉ better than the average US car (9.4 km/liter = 3,000 J/(m passenger) and 5⨉ better than a Tesla Model 3 (450 J/(m passenger). Swiss metros at 80% capacity used 150 J/(m passenger), or 20⨉ better than the average US car.[7][8][9] However, average worldwide metro energy use has been listed elsewhere at 1/7 that of cars (sorry, lost the reference). Edenicity’s transit-oriented, mixed-use design would likely cut the number of transit trips by more than half. Edenicity’s 2.5⨉ higher overall density and village/town/region structure would cut the average trip length by about half. 1/7 ⨉ 1/2 ⨉ 1/2 = 1/28.

Commenting for the alogorithm but also cause I support this! And because I want a better future?? I don't understand how as a society we cannot just agree on the this stuff... its not just the greed from certain people either - like I know LOTS of normal people that think what we have now is the only option and are perfectly happy being car dependent and reliant on precarious industrial infrastrustures to keep them alive. Maybe I am just a naive dummy that can't see things from other peoples points of view but seriously how is this guy (idk your stances on all policy) or someone else who equally educated AND well-spoken AND forward-thinking AND genuinely concerned for humanity not the president?? I want to help.
Thanks! This year I plan to share a range of opportunities for people to get involved, and the prior video has attracted the attention of a few organizations that may wish to help with some of that.
i've seen the word "hopium" thrown around about things like this.. meaning the tesla report which sounds all kinds of hopium and error
16:55 the background image is of Nairobi city in Kenya 🇰🇪 and it looks good
underground rail averages like 8x as expensive per mile as elevated
Let's see what happens when Boring Co scales up.
Curitiba (Brazil) has an excellent BRT system that serves almost as many people as the London underground on a much lower budget. Most trips taken are very short so active mobility & local BRT should be adequate, with rail for longer trips & between centres so passengers can sit in comfort and read, work, watch something on their computer etc during the trip.
Burying transit under ground can be very costly depending on geology, so how about placing them in tunnels instead where necessary with public space on top - parks, food gardens, trails, farmers' markets, outside venues, rainwater harvesting etc. Landscaping & berms can disguise tunnel infrastructure & provide amenity to residents.
Kev, I'd be interested in seeing a video on how to make suburban areas more resilient in the face of extreme weather events. In addition, is there an edenicity model for small towns and suburbs -- and how do those differ from large urban areas?
Thanks, I'll plan to share some thoughts on this in a couple weeks.
This doesn't just make sense, it's a reachable path to a better future, which we lack right now - at least as far as maximizing the better outcomes goes. It's ambitious, but properly ambitious, with ambitions for things that matter a lot, instead of "ambitions" for things that don't matter all that much. (See? I'm learning a bit of moderacy round here. :D) It doesn't even have to work out exactly as planned (which is likely, since there are always going to be people around who want the world to amount to less than it could be, for various reasons/ motives).
It's a nice combination of "plan" and "vision", too. There's the kernel of some plan of action that leads from here to there, and there's an open enough, but specific enough vision of where "there" should be. No point in starting to roll the boulder if the aim is to just have it roll straight back down the hill again. (Although I've heard that Sisyphus actually likes the cyclic nature, and the pointlessness of the endeavour - which would give it a kind of "point", then? Well if so, it's better to have a point of either leaving the boulder alone if it's the wrong thing to be moving, and to have some hope of change, given that there are things it would be nice to have change, in this world? Right now, Sisyphus is maybe more convincing to most people, if you observe how their boulder rolling efforts actually work out, but it's good to know there's at least a suggestion of perhaps changing to doing things otherwise. In one sense, all that's needed to achieve something like Edenicity is simply to give up this obsession with moving around in tight little circles every day.)
Thanks. I was wondering if someone would call me out on whether this was a plan or a vision. Part 3 was definitely different from the prior Tesla plans. We live in times that demand both prompt action and constant reflection, not just on the problems, but on the dichotomies that good design can resolve. With questions such as: “how can a city be safer, more affordable, quieter, and help heal the earth while also being more convenient?”
Thank you!
You're welcome!
If autonomous vehicles reduce the rate of crashes and fatalities to near zero, there would be no need for speed restrictions.
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Most cities can power a good chunk of their local electricity use, but not if they have industries. Fortunately most cities also have water reservoirs nearby - and a GOOD chunk of power can come from floating solar voltaics.
You'd go some way with just domestic solar - every kilowatt-hour generated by that is one less to be supplied elsewhere. It costs more, but then the city doesn't have to pay for it - the homeowners provide their own capital.
Great
i see a train in the thumbnail so this can't be tesla. they've never heard of trains over there. also, if it's Tesla/Musk then you can't take a word said as truth. it's a hype machine for vaporware. "gonna build an even more affordable car. I present to you the Cybertruck!"
which ended up being like 50% more expensive than the already expensive price on announcement 😂
Tesla and what Elon represent are the death of humanity. Our Thanatos come alive.
Tesla don't want to make an affordable car because it would ruin the appeal of their brand as a status symbol. If the lower classes can afford Teslas, then what's the point in flaunting one?

Great video. I've done a little research into maglev, but could it work in urban environments as a local transportation option (i.e. between nodes within a city)? I've only heard of it used for intercity travel. Also, do you think there could be a way to still have proper/efficient land use without havng underground transit lines? Tunneling is really expensive and riding underground is just generally less pleasant than riding elevated in my own personal experience.
Thanks. I prefer the elevated experience, too, but it's far from cheap, especially where it has to wrangle for right-of-ways in existing cities. I'll look into cost comparisons at some point. Anyway, this episode took a Tesla/Musk-centric view, where tunneling is a strength. Cities would do well to design to their geographic strengths. For local maglev, have a look at th-cam.com/video/RlbNzjVFDHo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pAtb-AaN7MuWe3vE&t=811
Vertical solar panel arrays allow for multi-use structuring, fyi
Lovely video for Illustration purposes and envisioning. But the amount of simplifications were nearly unbearable 😂
The chances are decent, that Tesla will go bankrupt.
Probably wiser to look elsewhere for salvation.
Musk might be crazy but I don't think he will go bankrupt
@@manuelvisak1396 Bankrupt, probably not. But Tesla as a company is seriously overvalued. They are a niche car manufacturer that somehow has a market cap greater than that of every American and European car manufacturer combined. They've also lost their technological edge - their cars aren't the fastest, or the longest range, or anything else desirable any more. They face intense competition from both the established domestic manufacturers with their own car offerings and from the low-cost imports from China. That threat is being 'addressed' by the federal government imposing very high tariffs on imported electric cars.
Tesla just isn't in a stable position right now. It's poised for a disaster that will wipe out much of their share value.
