CDC shooter! They shot at CDC! They were near Emory. Did not shoot at Emory but CDC buildings are riddled with bullet holes.

Not at Emory. They’re shooting at CDC. Near Emory.

Goodness that’s a lot of parking 🤦‍♀️

What on earth Sierra Club??? Electric cars are not the answer to climate change. Why are you schilling for car companies?

Ooo I thought those were rivers you were building to take care of Atlanta’s missing water feature problem. 😂 My preference would be to flood i20 though.

Missing anything to Clifton Cooridor though.

Currently in Paris with my kiddo and loving it! We’ve metro’d, bused, walked. Only issue is the complete lack of bike rentals for parents! We walked a million miles and were totally exhausted. Drooled over the ubiquitous ebike rentals but felt completely forgotten as a parent of a young kid.

I never want to see another human trot across a crosswalk, hurry their stroller/kids/mobility device or rush a senior resident through an intersection or any road.
It’s ridiculous, like we’ve been gifted some incredible act of patience from those driving.

If you're like why would they do this? Because the goal is to privatize weather forecasts. They've been really clear about this. It won't work and a lot of people will die. But some other people might get rich so

Also wish they didn’t clear cut each new segment. At least parts of the Eastside trial have regrown trees but South/Southwest is terrrrrrible.

Still many times higher than the rate for bus or rail travel. Whether you’re on the absolute or relative scale, cars are more dangerous than any other form of motorized transportation. injuryfacts.nsc.org/home-and-com...

Cars kill over 40,000 people a year in the US. So no, not “fairly safe” at all.

Under the “Big Beautiful Bill,” federal lands like Teton National Forest will be put up for sale to pay for tax cuts for the rich. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Call your senator, please.

An overwhelming majority of Georgians want climate-smart policies. Fewer would hold local officials accountable. (Visuals by Alex Ip)

I support providing tax rebates for energy-efficient vehicles or solar panels (73%)

I support the U.S. economy transition from fossil fuels to 100% clean energy by 2050 (68%)

I think my local officials should do more to address global warming (55%)

Just 1% of active voters in Georgia (74,464 people) voted early in the primary for Public Service Commission, despite an overwhelming majority supporting climate-smart policies, such as energy efficiency subsidies and the adoption of clean energy.

Election Day is THIS Tuesday!

Cutting the NIH—The $8 Trillion Health Care Catastrophe This JAMA Forum discusses the recent budget cuts to National Institutes of Health (NIH), the effects of these cuts on scientific research and health of individuals in the US, and the prospects for cha...

Over the next 25 years, if proposed cuts in NIH funding are made real, “In a population of more than 340 million, this reflects **82 million** fewer years of life.”

In the US alone.

I sent ATLDOT some questions this morning. Story to come Friday about the Streets Alive partnership with Uber/Waymo!

Apply for ACIP Membership Access the online application for ACIP membership and learn about qualifications.

This is not true. Congress doesn’t approve ACIP members. www.cdc.gov/acip/apply-f...

I worry that the mayor's office has no vision for Downtown ATL beyond events like the World Cup.

In Seattle they're preparing for their WC games by creating a bike/ped path near the stadium, which is a permanent investment in a sustainable future. In Atlanta we're just repaving streets for cars.

6yos are my favorite people on earth. They speak truth to power and know what’s up.

Cars Ruin Lives.

Are people in other countries under constant bombardment to "donate today" or do their societies function better?

Also the amount of space devoted to parking vs the actual horse areas is 🤮

Letter to Editor: Canceling Eastside light rail is waste of time, precious money Following years of design, pivot to Southside Trail leaves “transit-starved Atlantans” wanting, writer asserts

This letter is making the rounds, and it is spot on. The city cannot grow by expecting all future residents to drive everywhere (I mean, it can, but it would suck for everybody), and people can’t choose to do anything else if you don’t give them an option.

With CDC injury prevention team gutted, 'we will not know what is killing us' Workers who track data on car crashes, drownings, traumatic brain injury, falls in the elderly, and other perils lost their jobs. Advocates worry life-saving work will stop.

Madness. I’m sure these houses have long double driveways and multi car garages.

Finally! I too have messaged them a few times over the years!

Georgians, call your legislators! HB638, a bipartisan bill that would allow automated enforcement of bus-only lanes, will help to keep transit running smoothly. But the clock is ticking...

If only there was light rail or BRT to the main federal work center in Atlanta…🤦‍♀️

Correct headline here would have been: “Lack of appropriate transit infrastructure makes driving around Emory worse,” but glad this is getting attention. They’ve been talking about transit on Clifton at least 20y with 0 actual action. @emoryuniversity.bsky.social, City of Atlanta, and CDC to blame.
