If someone defends the #aviation industry by stating it 'only' represents 2% of global #Co2 emissions, please politely point out the following.
% Global population who flies in a given year≈5%
% Co2 from all global shipping≈3%
Emissions at altitude almost double warming impact
When will we see the climate benefits from e-fuels in aviation?

@icecreamavfc@monkey_magikkk@ChimeraX2021@Cycling_In_LDN It's really unfortunate so many of the people who try to speak up for #cycists & #pedestrians, are blind to the fact that our roadspace ultimately operates on observation & consideration.
This pedestrian has outsourced their observation to everyone around them, which is idiotic.
This morning, a series of explosions tore through Russia’s Naftatrans fuel processing facility in Krasnodar, hit earlier this week by Ukrainian drones.
The plant is now suffering several fully engulfed tanks, with hundreds of Russian firefighters failing to control the blaze.
German authorities have officially seized the Eventin, a tanker linked to Russia’s shadow fleet. The ship was detained in January while drifting near the German coast.
The vessel’s cargo will be handed over to the German state and sold.
Russia cannot continue its global terror without this fleet, and the world has all required tools to shut it down today.
Cycling hooliganism has been around a while …. Expecting others to look out for your safety while cycling recklessly like a hooligan….
This classic video tells me everything I need to know about the state of many cyclists cycling like an idiot…
@BrownBrandon503@ediz1975 The Navara might have fallen in popularity, but the segment did 116,280 sales in 2020 - plenty knocking about in London.

@jordanbhx Are you aware that motorists are already paying ~140% tax rate on fuel?
Rail uses red diesel, which only attracts 11p/litre duty (vs 58p for road fuel +VAT).
Ever more subsidy is not the answer to rail's problems, it needs to identify & drive down operational costs.
We are calling for new, affordable and realistic HS2 plan.

London’s transport prices are now the highest in the world. TFL’s ticket prices will rise from today, making London’s Tube network the most expensive public transport system across the globe. https://t.co/g7uBN7OquQ

Roll up, roll up, don't miss the exciting chance to spend as little as £40,000 and you *could save £700 a year, it's the deal of the century!
@seanaa88@supertanskiii That'll be a no then Sean
Fortunately, the parliamentary debate showed that labour back benchers have been looking beyond the blind rhetoric & learning how fatally flawed the detail of the policy is & why it'll crucify farmers it never intended to, whilst not doing what it aimed
@seanaa88@supertanskiii Have you familiarised yourself with the fundamental flaws in the policy as it stands, that the NFU, agricultural accountancy firms, the supermarkets, the AHDB & many others have raised Sean?
Our Chair, Paul McGuinness:
"As for any construction or purchase of steel, that would be at least over half a decade away, and the project may yet prove uninvestable as several of Heathrow’s airline customers have averred."

@ediz1975 Fortunately, they fell off without hitting anything & in doing so, gave themselves a useful reminder, that their haste, exceeded their competency in bike handling.
Perhaps they'll improve their skills, or slow down, either is a net benefit.
