Yes, it is true.People, on the whole, are stupid or at least maddeningly short-sighted. The thing is, I love cars. My neighbour has a 911 and it's a beautifully made object, so perfectly fit for purpose. As you say, a good car. But we must harden our hearts to such pretty temptations. Every one constructed and used is another of inhabitable earth's death by a trillion cuts. Buy second-hand if you really need a car.
Besides we'll hit peak oil, if we haven't already, and thirty years down the line petrol will hit the magical $300 a barrel mark. Once this occurs, capitalism and indeed society as we know it will cease to become viable. Forget about Porsches. Think Mad Max. We don't have very long to make significant scientific breakthroughs in cheap, clean energy and/or huge changes in how we think.
