text: Drastic efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from tailipes in Vauban, Germany have been put into order by creating an up-scale community that is "Car-free". As a result seventy precent of Vauban's families do not own cars. As said in paragraph eight of the passage "In german suburb, Life goes on without Cars" by Elisabeth Rosenthal, "emissions from n increasing number of private carsowned by the burgeoning middle class are choking cities." Sociologists believe this concept of car-free enviorments will have beneficial implicatins for carbon emissions and the enviorment, since transportations is the second largest source of emissions. there are critics such as the car industry that counter this idea because it could have negative implications on their business. Companies like Ford and Mercedes are already renaming themselves "mobility" companies with a broader product range other than the personl vehicle.
