text: In Vauban, Germany many residents of this community dont even own a car. The people are allowed to own a car but they have two options of parking that result in buying a space or a home with a space. With this great cost of spaces, up to 70 percent of the families do not own a car. Many people living this life style are very happy with not owning a car. Heidrun Walter thought that "when [she] had a car [she] was always tense. [And she] is much happier this way". It was proven that 12 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in Europe is from passenger cars. The idea of a "car reduced" community is very appealing to many people and is starting to spread to many locations.
