Bikes for Climate

The Climate Change Crisis requires everyone’s immediate action, including yours. Cycling instead of driving is the low hanging fruit!

How many more people would cycle if your city’s streets were this inviting?

How many would leave their cars at home if their choice was made this easy?

Don't design streets that make the 5% already biking marginally safer. Build them to entice the other 95% back on their bikes.

Cars are designed to transport loads exceeding a ton at speeds above 100 mph. For personal city transportation they are Overkill, literally, polluting, high in CO2 emissions and depleting our planet’s resources. #waroncars #carskillcities #cycling #actonclimate #choosebike

The Dutch invest €595 million—or €35 per resident—annually on cycling (15 times that of nearby England). Seem expensive?

Those 17 million people collectively cycle 15.5 billion km.—or 912 km. per resident—annually, saving their healthcare system €19 billion (3% of their GDP).

We notice the beauty on a bike, but miss it in a car.

Watch this.

I’d like to think I would have stopped, since I often do when a public musician is outstanding, but admittedly it depends on if I’m in a hurry.

We’re in a hurry too much. #beauty
