People in SF moving in "wrong direction"

SFMTA climate road map
 Story in Streetsblog.

How can the city turn in the "right" direction? Get more people on bikes? Make it harder to drive in the city? 

Not clear that either is politically possible, even in San Francisco.

Shot themselves in the foot showing only 3% ride bikes.

Racial equity: $60,000 electric vehicle, charging stations cost money, electric battery cost $12,000 minimum. Yes I’m sure 90% of S.F. citizens including low income can afford all that.

“Right direction”
I’m sure we all believe adding more bus lanes, less parking, bike lanes, banning plastic bags and straws result in an amazing travel experience and save lives. We will all live forever. We will never be killed while crossing the street by an electric car as it will be on fire(electrical short) stuck in our flooded streets.

Besides according to this link we have plenty of electricity to survive provided by windmills that stop spinning if the wind changes directions.

I’m not anti-planet or climate. But I very much anti-climate change bs. This planet is massive and we are all just ants, a fart in the wind. One must ask themselves one question when walking a long the ocean beach. Do you Realy believe electric cars, plastic lightbulbs, banning meat, red and green traffic lanes, using paper straws, wooden forks, wearing cheap plastic tennis shoes, and so on will stop one of those ocean waves if any from coming in?

Or are we just being told how to travel, how to eat, what to eat, what to wear(cheap plastic shoes), where to go and travel(closed streets) etc?

It’s now becoming a bit ridiculous. Every damn thing is blamed on climate change these days with white supremest highways and trees and unless we paint a green bike lane on the streets that hardened black tar will stand up put on a white hood and hang us all.

I wonder if they add these into their “collision” stats.
