Inside world: whatever we do surely the planet

whatever we do
surely the planet will survive
doubts about mankind

- Tom Godefrooij, Dutch Cycling Embassy

"Transportation" is about physical connection: places and distance, roads and bridges, concrete and steel, speed and space, money and tools, flattening and building, expertise and power, and vehicles in the eyes of the planners that for the most part might as well be empty.

"Mobility" by contrast is about another kind of connection. People. The inside world of transportation. Each time an entirely personal experience. In many cases a choice.  Each person, each time, very different.
