I don’t think I ever in my life want to live further than walking difference from a late night taco truck. How do y’all survive without one? 🌮

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

This close to MacArthur BART, it should be illegal to build anything less than 5 stories.

[John Smith @aglev33]

Proposal for a 3-story, 13-unit (2 affordable) +1 ADU to replace the surface lot at 4127 MLK: https://t.co/1yrUh5Rwy8. No rendering yet.

Transmission is our biggest barrier to a 100% emissions-free grid.

[Jesse D. Jenkins @JesseJenkins]

Fun fact: There were 1,280 gigawatts of clean power projects stuck waiting in queues to connect to the grid as of the end of 2022.
If 50% of those were built, that would be all the new capacity needed to cut US GHGs to 50% of peak levels by 2030 & be on path to net-zero by 2050.

My favorite NPR sign off. “Sylvia Poggioli, NPR News, Rome.” ICONIC.

[melissa block @NPRmelissablock]

End of an era, as @npr legend @spoggioli1 announces she’s retiring.

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

@_PatrickCurran I literally never will again

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

The @nytimes Daily episode today re: SVB is absolutely awful. It’s not risky to put your money in a bank. The podcast absolutely misses the thread that thousands of small businesses would have failed if their deposits weren’t made whole.

1. My trusty 6-year-old yellow hydroflask filled with ice cold water
2. Mimosa
3. Iced latte with whole milk
4. Hazy IPA
5. Paloma

[Patrick Curran @_PatrickCurran]

1. Guinness
2. Original NEIPA -- Alchemist, Hill Farmstead, Bissell, etc.
3. Dry martini
4. Laphroaig 10 neat
5. Coke Zero

(In reality a giant Nalgene full of water would also be on my list, probably at the top)

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

@taylormmcnair Omg yes

[David Ho @_david_ho_]

Large electric vehicles produce just as much emissions as smaller gasoline-powered cars (plus they kill more people).

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

@ryancmann OakDOT just installed a bunch of new ones on Broadway, and they do change signals in Oakland. The crosswalk signals often don't give you a go signal UNLESS you hit the button.

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

Abolish beg buttons and give pedestrians the full green to cross. Simple! I *hate* carrying groceries or walking the dog and dealing with these.

[Jean M. Walsh @jwalshie]

Does anyone else find this highly annoying?

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

@SFBART Wtf is up with 30 minute weekend headways. They suck.

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

We should really stop glorifying these monstrous EVs. GIVE ME SMALL CARS AND GOOD PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, JOE!!!!!!

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

On my watch, the great American road trip is going to be fully electrified.

And now, through a tax credit, you can get up to $7,500 on a new electric vehicle.

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

we don't even need one Dakota tbh.

[Kat Abughazaleh @KatAbughazaleh]

dc statehood is somehow a crazy fantasy and yet this country has two dakotas

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

IMO @SFBART should have built the new tunnel, extended it across the Bay, and taken over Muni. Muni trains are too small, unreliable, and infrequent, and the regional integration is subpar.

[BART @SFBART]

Take BART to Powell, transfer to the newly opened @SFMTA_Muni Union Square station and take it to Chinatown/Rose Pak station. Get some flowers, treats, fruits, snacks and some air this weekend. ✅

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

This tweet is also confusing!! What station is the delay at? Trains are flowing, so am I delayed if I’m waiting on the platform at Embarcadero or if I got on a train at Balboa?? @SFBART

[BART Alert @SFBARTalert]

There is a 20-minute delay on the San Francisco Line in the SFO, Millbrae, Daly City and East Bay directions due to an equipment problem on the track and police activity.

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

This tweet is incredibly confusing. The Oakland Airport line is the people mover from OAK to Coliseum. It doesn’t go to Dublin. @SFBART

[BART Alert @SFBARTalert]

BART is recovering from an earlier problem. There is a 20-minute delay on the Oakland Airport Line in the Dublin / Pleasanton and Berryessa directions due to police activity at Coliseum.

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

Yes please! @OakDOT, what is the delay here? I could paint a crosswalk here in 2 hours.

[Kuan Butts @buttsmeister]

Entering my 4th calendar year trying to get @OakDOT to simply install a crosswalk at the Adams/Chetwood 580 bridge. Without it, @rideact route 57 bus riders must run across the overbuilt Santa Clara Ave stroad through the always-speeding traffic.

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

YES. Oakland needs to get rid of beg buttons and *let me cross the street*.

[Jean M. Walsh @jwalshie]

Generous time to cross the street, no beg buttons, no turn on red, and micromobility options everywhere makes Washington DC a great place for getting around without a car.

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

I haven't been super productive in the first workday of 2023, but at least I did more than the House.

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

@stephaniemuci @nikkidubbs09 Every time I go home I basically only eat New Mexican food (best food on Planet Earth) so there's other good food but idk what.

[Martin Hussey @ClimateMartin]

@stephaniemuci @nikkidubbs09 El Patio, Padilla's, Duran's, and Monroe's for classic New Mexican; Frontier for late night/fast food; El Modelo for tamales; The Range for breakfast; Farina for bougie pizza
