All of the problems that we have seen from cars starts with the Ford Model T. The first successful production car changed how people travel and led to nearly everyone owning or using a car on a daily basis. Because of this, pollution has drastically increased, car prices are high, and mass transit systems are suffering.

If it wasn’t for the Model T, people would rely on less polluting methods of travel like trains, buses, or trolleys. Unfortunately, the long-lasting legacy of the Ford Model T is a pollution problem that we are still struggling to address and resolve today.
