How about a safe future with dignity for all? Ebikes, density, and heat pumps. Black Lives Matter. #ClimateCrisis @TheWarOnCars Born at 337.

Our goal for 2022 was to bike/walk more miles than we drove our cars. This goal fits in with our larger goals of lowering our contributions to the climate crisis. So how'd we do? We did it! And had a lot of fun along the way! 1/3

For the past decade, I have been surprised each time I watched this video. It shows how stable political culture can be, and how important it is to study the history of political arguments.

Celebration of bike life!

Squeaking in at the very end completing my final squares in @BunchBikes' #CarFreeChallenge! Pictured here is my bike demo/test ride, music ride, and a bike celebration helping friends finish their squares!

@JaneAFlegal This chart shows percentage of energy by fuel type. With energy demand growing rapidly, can't it be true that the percentage of dirty energy can go down, while the actual GHG emissions from it go up? Shouldn't we be more focused on GHG reductions?

[Paul Snodgrass @paulsnodgrass]

@BunchBikes @Buy_Nothing I filled the square for "help your community" for this one, but it also represents my community helping me and "carry your wheels". That's a wheel chair and walker that will help my family during a visit.

I just found out about @BunchBikes's 2024 #CarFreeChallenge a week into it. The good news is I've already got my card well on its way to full completion.

[Paul Snodgrass @paulsnodgrass]

@BunchBikes Taking the #CarFreeChallenge to a next level, I replaced 7 car trips with one awesome bike ride delivering houseplants to people in my local @Buy_Nothing community. An awesome @BunchBikes bike would have been the best tool for this job, but I made do with my trailer.

People are wanting to blame fossil fuel companies and Republicans right now and, ok, sure, fine.

But most climate pollution in the U.S. is from cars. Most car trips are mandated by urban land use policy.

And urban land use policy is *100% controlled by Democrats.*

[(((Matthew Lewis))) cults & consequences @mateosfo]

It’s just mind boggling to me, as someone who worked deep in the climate movement for 15 years, that all we have to show for it are cleaner power and electric cars and *literally zero preparation or budget* for the massive human displacement and relocations already underway.

Good morning everyone!

@dwallacewells wrote an impressively researched and NOT behind a paywall article on China:

"In 2023, the world including China installed 425 gigawatts of new solar power; the world without China installed only 162 gigawatts."

BEHOLD, TIS THY WEEKLY VIDEO

No really, let's talk about how prisons are being quietly used to shift political power out of cities / black and brown communities...and concentrate power in whiter, more rural places.

.@Citibank More than a dozen activists in Uganda and Tanzania were arrested before the peaceful protests against the EACOP pipeline even started. Stop bankrolling @TotalEnergies so we can #StopEACOP!

@leahstokes Thank you for your efforts and for educating people about the IRA's benefits to people and the planet!

[Paul Snodgrass @paulsnodgrass]

@leahstokes Where are the rebates that are accessible for more people than the tax credits? It is taking too long! Is Maine still the only state to implement them? And local installers are still completely uneducated on heat pumps and HP water heaters and advise against them.

Here's a wild anecdote: while teaching high school students about genocide in 1993, Walz had them use GIS data to predict where the next one would occur. They said Rwanda. (the NYT verified this via interviews with some of those students in a 2008 story)

If you are a journalist who covers the police or someone who reads articles about "police reform," I encourage you to read my new study:

[Paul Snodgrass @paulsnodgrass]

@solonsimmons The effects are unmistakable. I notice the causes constantly. Especially the car engines belching out death to everything.
