Cons: too many resources needed to make them all
The roads are constantly full of traffic jams and in some places it's quicker to ride a bike
The amount of pollution they cause
The amount of petrol and oil they need
The expense of keeping them fuelled, taxed and insured
The never ending production of newer, better models to keep people buying

Pros:
They're convenient Report Final score: 1point Tiny Dynamine POST Deborah B Deborah B Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Horse-powered vehicles were worse in urban environments - the horse s**t problem was real, and major, with literal mountains of rotting horse crap outside cities. Dead horses in the street were also a daily problem and cause of traffic jams. Early cars, with their fumes and smoke were hailed as a pollution-reducing marvel. 7 7points reply View More Replies...

Report Final score: -8points just another bookish gay POST Sky Render Sky Render Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Gender roles are far more of a problem, honestly. Being able to identify with the majority of a given sex is actually important for more people than you'd realize. It grants a sense of solidarity that would otherwise be lacking if the only common ground you could find with others was just "we're the same species". It's when you put expectations on those defining characteristics (ie. gender roles, sexism, etc.) that problems arise. 3 3points reply View more comments See Also on Bored Panda 30 Of The Most Hectic Homes As Shared On 'The Broke Agent' Instagram Account Bride Doesn't Include Wedding Dinner Price In Her Wedding Invites, Is Surprised To See Many Guests Canceling On Her After They Find Out Anyone can write on Bored Panda.
