WEBVTT - Introducing The Future of X: Mobility

0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:12.120
<v Speaker 1>People have started to move again after a year spent

0:00:12.200 --> 0:00:14.920
<v Speaker 1>stuck in our homes. Record numbers of people are taking

0:00:14.960 --> 0:00:18.040
<v Speaker 1>cross country road trips. They're flying to see loved ones.

0:00:18.600 --> 0:00:25.960
<v Speaker 1>People are even coming back to public transit. It feels

0:00:25.960 --> 0:00:28.680
<v Speaker 1>good to get moving, but all that travel puts a

0:00:28.760 --> 0:00:33.199
<v Speaker 1>strain on our planets limited resources. Transportation is one of

0:00:33.240 --> 0:00:36.360
<v Speaker 1>the biggest sources of greenhouse gas emissions, and as you've

0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:40.000
<v Speaker 1>probably noticed, the need to cool our warming climate has

0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:43.360
<v Speaker 1>never been greater. We have to rethink everything about how

0:00:43.360 --> 0:00:46.559
<v Speaker 1>we get from point A to point B before it's

0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:54.000
<v Speaker 1>too late. Welcome to the Future of X from Ozzi

0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Media in partnership with Ford. Each season we give you

0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:00.680
<v Speaker 1>a glimpse into what lies ahead for humanity. We've looked

0:01:00.680 --> 0:01:03.840
<v Speaker 1>at how healthcare will change in the coming decades, asked

0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:06.800
<v Speaker 1>what will become of the workplace, and dug deep into

0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:10.160
<v Speaker 1>the future of farming. This season, we look at the

0:01:10.160 --> 0:01:15.959
<v Speaker 1>future of mobility. I'm Josh lash, a producer with AZZI.

0:01:16.800 --> 0:01:19.240
<v Speaker 1>I grew up in Southeast Michigan, the car capital of

0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:21.880
<v Speaker 1>the world. Now I live in New York City, where

0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:24.759
<v Speaker 1>I get around on bikes and trains. When I look

0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:27.319
<v Speaker 1>at the future of mobility. I see a lot of

0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:32.280
<v Speaker 1>reasons to worry, so there is an urgent need for

0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:36.479
<v Speaker 1>us to significantly reduce at the amount of SUE two

0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:40.280
<v Speaker 1>we admit. I also see an opportunity to build a better,

0:01:40.440 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 1>more sustainable future for generations to come. Humans are ingenious, right,

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:48.480
<v Speaker 1>we solve all kinds of problems. Hop in, I'll show

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:51.720
<v Speaker 1>you what I'm talking about. We'll take an electrifying drive

0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:55.040
<v Speaker 1>on the Great American Road Trip. As strange as an

0:01:55.120 --> 0:01:58.960
<v Speaker 1>electric car was thirty years ago, a gasoline car would

0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:02.960
<v Speaker 1>be in two decades. Or sit back and let science

0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:05.440
<v Speaker 1>take the wheel. I think you see. You know, fifty

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 1>years from now, you won't be driving your car. It

0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:09.840
<v Speaker 1>will be driving you. It will be taking you to

0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.280
<v Speaker 1>the places you want to go to. We'll take a

0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:15.360
<v Speaker 1>part the vehicles we drive today, piece by piece, in

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:18.360
<v Speaker 1>order to build them back better. It's rethinking how we

0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:21.359
<v Speaker 1>build cars. It's rethinking how we use cars. It's rethinking

0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:25.440
<v Speaker 1>how we disassemble and rebuild cars out of those materials again,

0:02:25.720 --> 0:02:28.399
<v Speaker 1>and take a peek under the hood at the technologies

0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 1>that will get us to a zero carbon future. It

0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:33.120
<v Speaker 1>is now, it has been for a while, sort of

0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:36.120
<v Speaker 1>the Wild West when it comes to next generation battery

0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:39.679
<v Speaker 1>or fuel cell technologies. There's so many ideas out there.

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:43.919
<v Speaker 1>Everybody loves to move. How we choose to move, we'll

0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:47.160
<v Speaker 1>determine what life looks like for the next generation. In

0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:50.040
<v Speaker 1>order to avoid the worst of a changing climate, we'll

0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:53.160
<v Speaker 1>need to rethink everything about what we drive and how

0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:56.200
<v Speaker 1>we drive it, or if we even drive it at all.

0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:00.120
<v Speaker 1>The future of mobility has the potential to elect or

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:03.920
<v Speaker 1>fire our imagination, sustain our planet, and connect us like

0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:06.800
<v Speaker 1>never before. If you want to see how we get there,

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:09.760
<v Speaker 1>then get in and buckle up. It's going to be

0:03:09.800 --> 0:03:13.359
<v Speaker 1>a wild ride. Listen to the Future of X Future

0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:38.440
<v Speaker 1>three of America's most iconic popular vehicles. They've been fully electrified,

0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:43.120
<v Speaker 1>and they're making the revolutionary feel familiar. We've got a

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:46.480
<v Speaker 1>feeling they will help make electric vehicles even more popular

0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:51.680
