What happens when cities tear out highways and build parks 🌳, public transport corridors 🚌and segregated bike lanes 🚲?

➡️ Traffic gets better.

The phenomenon is called 🚗Traffic evaporation🚗

Here is how it works 👇👇

The City of Boulder, Colorado‘s e-bike rebate program begins in July. Residents will be able to get $300 back off the price an e-bike or $500 off an e-cargo bike sold by local retailers. Low-income residents get even more back, $1200/$1400 respectively. https://t.co/TLuVXZE1a0

BREAKING: Toronto City Council just voted to allow duplexes, triplexes & fourplexes as-of-right in zoning city-wide effectively ending “single family zoning” in Toronto. The city has large suburbs & has long championed “stable neighbourhoods” so this is a BIG deal. #GentleDensity

Last year, a coworker randomly asked me to hand-deliver an antique violin across the country. I said yes, because why not. I had no idea what I was getting into, and now I need your help. A 🧵

Amazing listen. I appreciate Brent’s point re: the misclassification of SUVs & trucks as cars, & the related environmental, infrastructure & safety consequences rarely discussed. Also, he dismantles notions of “SUV safety” using an ethical & equitable lens considering everyone.

California won't be doing business with @walgreens -- or any company that cowers to the extremists and puts women's lives at risk.

We're done.

Firearm-related injury is now the leading cause of death among children and teens. We continue to fail to protect our youth from a preventable cause of death. https://t.co/CC470Gawwf

There are over 100 cable ferries in the Netherlands, serving as unique and important links within the rural walking and cycling networks.

At strategic locations where a bridge is impractical, they offer a self-propelled water crossing using a guide cable placed along the bottom.

@LakotaMan1 Absolutely.

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

Being a scientist, I had to check the math. Turns out it's even worse. You could have made $53,000 (£44,000) a day or $20 million per year since Jesus was born and still not make the profits Shell did in 2022.

“Ambitious policies investing in mass transit, walkable towns and cities, and robust battery recycling in the US would slash the amount of extra lithium required for the US’s transition to electric vehicles in 2050 by more than 90%.” 🔌🚘 @ninalakhani
