There are quite a few single family homes that just have on-street parking with no dedicated parking spots (myself included). EV isn't an option for my unless my workplace had charging for nearly every vehicle. The current 2 charging stations are already taken most days.

Have you spoken to your local city about getting charging pedestals installed? Or having chargers added to street lights? Have you spoken to your workplace about having any amount of chargers installed? Progress is not a function of time.

The transition to electric mobility will require effort, but is not impossible. I am happy to speak to whomever is required to work towards having chargers installed near your home or workplace.

"Progress is not a function of time", this is a really deep quote.

I use it too much, but it's true. The world gets better when people put effort into it, not just because time passes, and its important to remind others that complaining is cheap but doesn't pay dividends like fixing problems. Along with the idea “A society grows great when old men [people] plant trees in whose shade they know they shall never sit”. Learn to enjoy planting the proverbial trees, the future will be thankful; and to be frank, we owe the future better than today. It is on loan to us, and we should act accordingly.
