In 1967 there is a pub on the corner on the left and in front a wide road with cars parked along both sides. Today the pub is a restaurant with outdoor seating and the road is narrow, paved with trees and greenery. Two people cycle side by side

prioritizing youth mobility is prioritizing adult relaxing

When kids can walk/roll safely and independently to school, you can enjoy some peaceful time to yourself.

Hands Off Nature - Stop the right from dismantling nature

Europe is not immune to the Trump/Musk playbook. This Thursday, right-wing MEPs are teaming up to attack one of the most successful nature protection laws in the world: the Habitats Directive.

Graphic full of statistics on the inefficiency of private automobiles

Graphic full of statistics on the inefficiency of private automobiles

A typical European car is parked 92% of the time. It spends 1/5th of its driving time looking for parking. Its 5 seats only move 1.5 people. 86% of its fuel never reaches the wheels, and most of the energy that does, moves the car, not the people.

Sound efficient?

There's a lot of talk about growth but rarely any discussion on how we enable our children to live prosperous, happy and productive lives.

It will have benefits both now and in the future.

The school run is the epitome of inefficiency. These kids know there's a much better way.
