Attention Street Design Nerds! One of the most intriguing cities in recent years at reconsidering streets for people instead of just for cars, Oslo Norway, has translated their great Street Design Manual into English and put it on-line. Worth digging into. #Oslo

Copenhagen has taken bicycle commuting to a whole new level Cycling has been a part of that good life in Copenhagen for decades. In recent years, it has enjoyed yet another unfathomable surge in popularity — taken to the next level thanks to constantly improvi...

“Copenhagen reported that 62% of its residents are now commuting to work or school by bike — an increase from 52% in 2015 & 36% in 2012, when the City Council launched a 14-year-plan to improve the quality, safety & comfort of cycling.”

#Copenhagen chose. They keep choosing even better every year.

Greta Thunberg: “Gaza has shown the true colours of the world”.

Why Greta is a *true* global leader: her integrity is not for sale, or open to compromise.

You can't truly be against planetary breakdown without also being against genocide.

Green line graph time series of average sea surface temperature anomalies for each January to November period from 1900 through 2024. There is large interannual variability, but an overall long-term increasing trend. Anomalies are computed relative to a 1981-2010 baseline.

Looking at the year-to-date shows the 2024 global mean sea surface temperature anomaly (departure from an average) as the highest on record.

Data for this graph is constructed from NOAA ERSSTv5 and averaged over each January to November period.

Cost of electricity relative to fossil fuels is key factor when it comes to industrial electrification.

In most EU countries electricity is taxed more & renewable energy support levies are often put on electricity & not on fossil fuels.

UK arrest rate for climate protests is highest in Europe New powers for police have seen an increased number of climate protest-related arrests.

Climate clampdown: Research shows UK and Norway most likely to arrest protesters

www.euronews.com/green/2024/1...

#ClimateJustice #RightToProtest

In the UK, climate activists are 3x more likely to be arrested than in other countries.

This isn’t about policing—it’s about a government choosing repression over #climateaction.

But we won’t be silenced.
