Carbusters Magazine is published four times a year by the World Carfree Network and produced by an international activist team in Prague, Czech Republic. It is a 32-page print magazine critiquing our society's car culture and exploring positive alternatives. Carbusters aims to serve as both an information source and a call to action, providing a full range of content from direct action skills to the latest research developments, feature articles on topics ranging from Driving as Addiction to Ecocity Visions, world news and even cartoons poking fun at the car and oil industries.
Worldcarfree.net is a clearinghouse of information from around the world on how to revitalise our towns and cities and create a sustainable future. In addition to serving the carfree movement, Worldcarfree.net offers resources for architects, planners, teachers/professors, students, decision-makers and engaged citizens.
World Carfree Network grew out of the activities of Car Busters, an international organisation within the carfree movement founded in 1997.
World Carfree Network uses the term "carfree movement" rather broadly, to refer to:
those promoting alternatives to car dependence and car culture, including alternative modes such as cycling, walking and public transport;
those promoting carfree lifestyle choices, within either a car-dependent, car-lite* or carfree local context;
those promoting the building of (usually mixed-use) carfree environments# on either brownfield or greenfield sites (usually sited to ensure easy access to a variety of non-automotive transport modes);
those promoting carfree days, using the events as tools to bring about long-term on-the-ground change in infrastructure and priorities (example: Bogota); and
those promoting the transformation of existing villages, towns and cities (or parts of them) into carfree environments.
