Political ideas

Important: Be positive, suggest general solutions, don't address parties or politicians

In the Netherlands, traffic is getting worse everyday. Air pollution is above the allowed maximum. How to solve this?

• Promote working nearby home. Government employers first, accept new employees only if living nearby. Make job swapping easier. Don't pay for fuel or lease out diesel or petrol fuel powered cars.
• Make petrol, gas and diesel much more expensive, use all of the money for making electric or H2 cars cheaper, for public transport and for CO2 compensation.
• Maximum speed for all traffic at 90kph. It sounds stupid, but this helps to get faster to work with less fuel consumption. Why?
  • 85% less jams, trucks are not a mobile roadblock anymore, safety is improved, less accidents.
  • Maximum speed is lower, but average speed goes up and people are more relaxed, so less stress and less health problems!
  • Air pollution drops significantly!
