Given the brilliant sentence of “life without cars and trucks is unimaginable” I think we’ll have to learn that the hard way…
It's strange they use the term “unimaginable” to describe a time barely one human lifespan ago. Unimaginable better describes the notion of continued material growth and increasing rate of drawdown on a clearly finite resource base.
Amen.
And, if I can add a comment, an "unimaginable" situation actually experienced by 80 % of the current mankind. They are of course not totally deprived of transportation means powered by thermal engines, but have only a very limited access to them (and probably much less than Europe in 2050 in any case).
