Bring more e-scooters to the American market! I want one!
In my country they just get thrown in waterways or in trees
Wonder if this has some impact on this topic.
That’s got a very real impact! But companies being wasteful isn’t a reason to throw the baby out with the bathwater. There are still a lot of micromobility options that are replacing car trips and that can only be seen as a good thing. And it’s not like you won’t find many more tons of plastic and steel in automobile junkyards. But, yes, I agree we should avoid a situation where we flood the market and end up with bikes getting discarded wastefully.
