The Hidden Costs of Cars w/ Dr. Tim Welch: March 18, 2022

There has been a great deal of talk recently about the rising cost of fuel with the price per liter reaching over $3 in New Zealand.

However, there are hidden costs to driving cars that are not factored in at the pump, particularly in regards to the environmental and social impacts of the car’s prevalence.

Casper had a chat with Dr Tim Welch, a senior lecturer in architecture and planning at the University of Auckland, about the hidden costs of cars and what rising fuel prices mean from a broader, social lens.
