The Drop

Utilizing electric vehicles and cargo cycles, we provide zero-carbon, zero-emission delivery logistics.

#Vehicle2Grid aspirations.

**Closing coal power plants & the pandemic have had a larger emissions reduction impact BUT they're out of the city's control so were not counted towards scoring policy progress

[The Drop @DropDist]

A new review finds that Toronto is behind pace to meet its goal of 65% CO2 reduction by 2030.

Lots of work ahead...but the authors note low/no CO2 transportation is leading the way.**

We'd love to see more zero emissions city vehicles! $$ savings talk!

Year 2 as an @OnLivingwage Certified Living Wage employer and we’re so excited to be connected to this incredible network of employers who share the same core value.

A living wage for all!

Mourning today.

A college student & cyclist was killed after being run over by a truck making an illegal right turn during yesterday's rush hour at Yonge & St Clair.

They could have driven around the block. This happened instead.

Patience (and infrastructure) saves lives.

[ARC @RespectTO]

Please ride with us in memory of the cyclist killed at the intersection St. Clair and Yonge on November 30th. 6:30pm Bloor & Spadina #YouNeverRideAlone #BikeTO

Today we remember why saftey comes first at The Drop.

Being a #LivingWage employer is part of this saftey mission. Our drivers do not need to run between multiple low paying jobs to survive.

This means they bring focus and patience to Toronto's roads, not exhaustion and danger.

[World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims© @WDRemembrance]

The day that we’re talking about has come!

Today, November 20th, we take time to honor those we have lost in road crashes.
Today we direct the attention to the need for improved justice for victims.
Today we #act as one.

The designers working in Maryland packed A LOT into a small space with this solar microgrid & bus charging depot.

Inspiring! There’s no space to waste when building for a sustainable future 🍃

Thank you @ElectrekCo & @michelle0728 for the scoop!

@StephenBikesTO Dorky rain pants -- being a bit cold is ok, but wet AND cold?

We've noticed the new traffic calming & rerouting around Dufferin Grove and couldn't be happier with the changes. Frantic through traffic has been replaced with planters and bike lanes...beautiful!

Academia at its best! Sharing this great resource from @CANUEConsortium & Dalla Lana School of Public Health on #WorldCleanAirDay

The map identifies Equity Priority areas disproportionately affected by air pollution & heat across Canada.

I asked stable diffusion what it thinks photovoltaic systems would look like in the style of various artists.

Well said @anabailaoTO! Happy labour day.

Rising cost of living means workers need a #LivingWage (at least!)

Props to the Toronto companies leading the way 👇

I was proud to march with workers & labour leaders today at the @torontolabour #LabourDay Parade.

I join in celebrating the safer working conditions, better wages, & the many other achievements of the labour movement.

Workers rights are worth fighting for every day.

Two electric pumper fire trucks and one electric rescue truck, made by @revgroupinc, will help fire services in Toronto and Varennes, Que., reduce emissions and improve firefighter health and safety, while standing up to the rigours of the job.

Heat stroke shouldn't be a workplace hazard for delivery drivers.

I am absolutely horrified that our Mayor is casually going along with a reduction in democratic access and accountability
