Just got a sofa on Freecycle so obviously had to get someone on a @pedalme.bsky.social cargo bike to deliver it (ty @leuconeura.bsky.social for the help taking it down two flights of stairs)

It's not just that work under these platforms is often done illegally (illegal vehicles; uninsured; breaking road traffic laws; modern slavery infiltrated labour).

But even if you solve those problems; the employment model is exploitative to try and hide the fact that these are, in fact, employees.

Subsidy per mile is definitely the way to go here: incentivise the switch to legit, safe, e-bikes.

A lot of mobility innovation focuses on making existing options even more comfortable for the most privileged, at the expense of children, the elderly, people with low incomes or disabilities. If we’re not designing for them, we're designing ourselves out of the system: fair-mobility.eu/the-library/

Electric cars eligible for Β£3,750 discount announced The Puma Gen-E and e-Tourneo Courier are two Ford models drivers can purchase under the government scheme.

People who can afford to drop the thick end of Β£40k on a car do not need a handout.
We should be using that cash to get people to swap to alternatives instead.

New freight association to support switch to cleaner vehicles | GreenFleet A trade association -Β Sustainable Urban Freight Association (SUFA) -Β has been formed to support the move to cleaner and more efficient urban freight and last mile deliveries. Funded by health charity…

Good to see this new trade association for #Sustainable urban freight, funded by @impurbanhealth.bsky.social, and to see the range of founding members. From @pedalme.bsky.social to Evri to DHL, it's great to see representation from mixed fleets as well as electric vans and cargo bikes. #AirPollution

Ed Miliband to tell MPs who reject net zero policies they are betraying future generations Exclusive: Energy secretary’s β€˜radical truth-telling’ comes as Reform plans net zero bonfire and Tories also ditch targets

Ed Milliband is about the only reason to have faith in labour.
He is right.
We do need to continue to step up efforts to get to net zero and tackle the climate emergency.
Change has already happened, and UK weather is more extreme so we need to double down.

Hi guys !
By coincidence, @pedalme.bsky.social the bike courier people are running a citizen science project into substitution in the food delivery industry.
You should check it out:
