Cycling is a low-cost mode of transport for both individuals and society.

A bicycle is cheaper to purchase and maintain than a motor vehicle, which also makes it more equitable.

"Different cyclists have different characteristics. These differences are especially true for the parking of bikes. So how can cities determine which parking facilities are needed, and where?"

It's tough to grasp what it truly means to make $32.6 billion in 3 months.

It means ending the Hollywood writers’ strike 82.6 times.

It means paying for King Charles’ coronation 260.8 million times.

The combined first-quarter profits of Exxon, Chevron, BP and Shell in 2023 could also

-Buy flood insurance for every home in Louisiana
-Protect Virginia from sea level rise until 2040
-Fund the entire disaster relief and recovery for Hurricane Michael

It's quite a lot of money.

[Emily Atkin @emorwee]

In the first 3 months of 2023, the world's 4 biggest climate-polluting investor-owned companies made a combined $32.6 billion.

That's enough money to

-End world hunger for nearly a year
-End U.S. homelessness for ~4 years
-Fund FEMA’s budget for ~3 years

But that's not all...

After a record-breaking year of profits, the oil giant @Shell paid less in tax than the family-owned baking company @Warburtons.

How can it be that at a time when millions are struggling to feed their families Britain’s biggest supermarket is profiteering as never before? What sort of country have we become? Frankly, the latest results are obscene. 2/3 🧵
