Gjennomgående fortau gjør at gående og rullende slipper nivåforskjeller og kanter når de skal krysse sidegater, og gjør at bilister må senke farten nesten helt ned til stopp for å krysse. Dette er trafikksikkerhet, men det hører du ingenting om fra Trygg Trafikk.

Greta Thunberg is dominating global headlines. Everyone’s eyes are on her.

We often call better city-building ideas bold and visionary when they’re really just common sense given the real-life crises that cities are facing. But true common sense isn’t particularly common these days, so it’s considered bold.

In cities, street space is a really scarce (and under-valued) commodity. Increasing vehicle size costs everyone.

And vehicle weight determines your impact on the wear-and-tear of cities.

So this kind of public policy is really just common sense.

How do you move 1000 people into a city centre? 1 train, 20 buses or 650 personal vehicles (with a LOT of parking required!) HT @davidloisuned.bsky.social for the Spanish translation of one of my favourite graphics originally from Sydney. #CityMakingMath

The interesting thing about capitalism is that it's entirely incompatible wit the future, so we've just decided to get rid of the future and keep capitalism for a short while

Åbent brev fra embedsmænd i Københavns Kommune: Vi kan ikke være stolte af vores arbejde I aften vedtager Borgerrepræsentationen en ny klimaplan, der går efter en halvering af aftrykket fra borgernes forbrug. Men det kan ikke lade sig gøre, skriver debattørerne.

KLIMAAMBITIONER UDEN HANDLING.
Flertallet på Københavns Rådhus pillede alle de nye handlingsplaner ud af klimastrategien.
Vil du forstå, hvor vildt det er, så er der nu fire embedsfolk, der helt usædvanligt bruger deres ytringsfrihed til kritik. Læs:

Nearly 900 fewer people injured since 20mph introduction in Wales Figures show a 25% reduction in the number of injuries on Wales' roads in the past 18 months.

Slower speeds save lives: "...there were 2,638 people injured, including deaths, on low-speed roads in the most recent 18 months, compared with 3,520 injuries between April 2022 and September 2023, a reduction of 25%."

"He's not a hero."
"He's a scumbag."

No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd.

Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

Polariseringen högern sysslar med börjar på riktigt bli farlig. De inskränkningar i medborgerliga rättigheter vi redan har sett är rena vaniljsåsen jämfört med sådant Busch och Nazidorescu argumenterar för nu.

9 april 1940 ble Norge invadert av engasjerte samfunnsdebattanter som ønsket å bevare tradisjonelle familieverdier.

Det er også sådan jeg har forstået sagen. (Meget takket være dine gode forklaringer). Det ironiske er, at ekstremisternes fokus på pronominer (potentielt) rammer dem selv i nakken.

Man må også gå ud fra at han ikke har noget imod det.

Tak for for det gode resume. Betyder dommen også, at man eksempelvis frit kan bruge pronominerne han/ham om Lotte Ingerslev, uden at det vil blive anset som en krænkelse?

On one hand, reducing car use reduces urban pollution.
But on the other, everyone likes it and cities become more livable

Very interesting data that shows that bikes are twice as fast compared to motor vehicles in London city.

The average speeds of cars around London City is 10kmh (15kmh in Greater London). 74% of car trips are less than 10km.

"Scientists say ‘shocking’ discovery shows rapid cuts in carbon emissions are needed to avoid catastrophic fallout.

We found that the tipping point where the shutdown becomes inevitable is probably in the next 10 to 20 years or so."

A method to identify positive tipping points to accelerate low-carbon transitions and actions to trigger them - Sustainability Science Meeting the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to “well below 2 °C” requires a radical acceleration of action, as the global economy is decarbonising at least five times too slowly. Tipping point...

Positive tipping points for climate, like the UK phasing out coal, show how big steps toward a low-carbon future can suddenly become unstoppable.

Can we identify where the next tipping points could happen, and figure out how to help trigger them?

These researchers say YES.

Graphic filled with stats on the efficiency of urban biking and how safe it is.

Why do we need a lot more protected bike-lanes in cities? Because biking in protected #bikelanes poses just 1/10th the risk of biking on major streets with parking. Via @momentummag.bsky.social. Plus they mean a LOT more people choosing biking, which has all sorts of health and cost saving benefits.

Det var åbenbart det der skulle til, for at min hjerne holdt op med at spille K Pop Demon Hunters, nu på tredje døgn. Tak ♥️

Lækkert nummer i øvrigt.

Epstein survivor Sarah Ransome on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I have spent the last 17 years in my own prison for what she, Jeffrey, and all the co-conspirators did to me. I was raped three times a day. Ghislaine must die in prison.”

Rue Daguerre in Paris before in 2012. It’s crowded with cars.

Same spot. Photo by me. Lots of greenery where the cars once were.

Before, cars ruled and people were pushed to the edges, but Rue Daguerre’s transformation to a shared street made it a more inviting place for the neighborhood.
