Researchers just found that gas stoves are responsible for 12.7% of childhood asthma cases.

Recently I read dozens of studies about gas stoves and indoor air quality.

I also installed monitors in our home and ran my own tests.

Here's what I learned.

Certainly making me feel better about my choice to listen to the BBC’s commentary. https://t.co/W7EYSIKcSJ

Unsure how effective it will be, but it’s pleasantly whimsical. https://t.co/gwProqFWfq

Outstanding column by @jbouie, who argues that "American democracy and American autocracy have existed side by side... too many Americans still think it can’t happen here, when the truth is that it already has and may well again." https://t.co/d4OpySkCtl

Competitive authoritarianism watch: Democrats having to fight to hold enough state legislatures to prevent Republicans from potentially overturning the outcome of the next presidential election https://t.co/T5JebL8YOd

Not something that is even contemplated in a normal democracy

Some day we will perhaps have electric vertical mass transit vehicles that make it feasible to stack dwellings on top of each other and overcome land scarcity.

Heavier cars are safer for their drivers, but far deadlier for everyone else.

This paper find that for every 1,000 pounds a car weighs over a Toyota Corolla, the chance of killing another person goes up by 46%! Heavier vehicles lead to 28k more US deaths. https://t.co/PdvC6OEPWz

The shift to WFH is the largest shock to labor markets in decades. Pre-pandemic WFH was trending towards 5% of days by 2022. Now WFH is now stabilizing at 30%, a 6-fold jump.

In America alone this is saving about 200 million hours and 6 billion miles of commuting a week.

Remember this picture every single time you hear someone in your city say "we're not Amsterdam." This was #Amsterdam in the 1970's via @fietsprofessor. The cities we admire made better choices regarding cars, and are still making them today. Better choices instead of excuses.
