The top is Nordic blonde dude saying, "I have to switch lanes completely to pass" next to an image of a car going around a double parked truck The bottom is angry tears guy saying, "I have to switch lanes completely to pass" next to an image of a car going around a bike

I wish @kill.cars was on here

Dansk Landbrug siger nej!

I really resent it when motor lobbyists claim to speak on behalf of "drivers". I'm a driver myself: that doesn't mean I don't support building more bike lanes, ped crossings and investing in public transport - yes, even if that's at the expense of driving space/time. There are many people like me!

Humanister vil anerkendes på linje med religiøse trossamfund, men: 'En udfordring, de ikke tror på noget' Humanistisk Samfund mener, det er diskriminerede, at de ikke kan blive et anerkendt trossamfund.

Bare fordi man ikke tror på noget overnaturligt…Gud, Allah eller det store spagetti-monster, hvorfor kan man så ikke blive anerkendt som trosssamfund, når man tror på humanisme og demokrati og foretager vielser og komfirmationer og begravelser?

I think we can also gather that it is unhealthy to be bombed by Russia.

Lokale fiskere tabte kæben, da Magnus Heunicke rappede i Nordjylland: 'Det er respektløst' Miljøministeren beklager en rapoptræden, hvor han anklager fiskeriet for at ødelægge havbunden med bundtrawl.

Der er ikke noget kontroversielt i at sige, at bundtrawl ødelægger havbunden. Der er heller ikke noget kontroversielt i at rappe om trawlfri områder, når regeringen er ved at indføre trawlfri områder. Tonen fra fiskerierhvervet selv, er mega hård. Det her virker søgt.

Lærere giver bestemte elevgrupper lavere karakterer, end de bør få Mange elever får ikke en årskarakter, der afspejler deres faglige niveau, viser nyt studie med 400.000 elever. Det kan have konsekvenser for deres ungdomsuddannelse. Minister vil til bunds i studiet.

“Forskerne kan se, at elever som får samme karakter ved eksamen, når de bedømmes af en censor, i gennemsnit får cirka en halv karakter lavere standpunktskarakter, hvis de enten er dreng, har ikke-vestlig baggrund, eller hvis de kommer fra et hjem med kort uddannelse.”

Streets are not “closed” when they’re free of cars; they’re car free. They’re safer. They’re full of people. They aren’t “closed”
Language matters.

Bare lige en påmindelse om, at de danske farvande er nogle af de mest bundtrawlede i hele verden, og at det har katastrofale konsekvenser for den marine biodiversitet, når havbunden igen og igen pløjes, mens de uselektive redskaber høvler gigantiske mængder bifangst - ofte truede fisk - med ombord.

Cars are about to get really expensive. May I recommend an ebike?

Toronto shopping street

Half of business owners on this Toronto street estimated that more than 25% of their customers arrived by car.

In fact, it was 4%.

And the % of customers who who walked or cycled? 72%.

Retailers routinely overestimate the # of “car customers.” Via @carltonreid.com www.forbes.com/sites/carlto...

Jeg kan simpelthen ikke orke flere bøger fra eliten, hvor de forsvarer deres ulovligheder. Det har de domstolene til.

What you can’t see are the three children riding bikes to my right side.

What you can feel is this drivers impatience with having to drive responsibly.

Do drivers not realize that this behavior puts undue stress on those outside of vehicles?

Give the kids a break, let ‘em ride their bikes.

The only fair way to handle this is to appoint a team of teenagers to tear this company limb from limb until we find out what kind of financial damage they are hiding and where

'Danish Viking blood is boiling.' Danes boycott US goods with fervor as others in Europe do so too Consumers across Europe furious over President Donald Trump’s policies are boycotting U.S. goods.

Something powerful is happening around the world.

In Canada it’s been “Elbows Up.” With the Danes, it’s “Viking Blood Boiling.”

It’s in Ireland, in Mexico, and even the Swiss aren’t neutral.

Nations everywhere are boycotting US goods, tourism and even culture.

Thanks to Trump, Elon, GOP & MAGA.

For the first time, the Norwegian government has calculated the value to society of the health benefits of increased walking and cycling.

🚲 ~€2.8 for each additional km of cycling
🚶‍♀️ ~€4.2 for each additional km of walking

Godt at få sat tal på! Det understreger hvor god en forretning det faktisk er at investere i fx cykel-infrastruktur.

In a world of Matts, be a Derek.

Præcis! Det er meget mere effektivt at lave gode forhold for cyklister end at give dem en hjelm på.

Jeg vil gerne slå et slag for at vi holder fancy stillingsbetegnelser for mere korrekte termer. Vi kan starte med at kalde en "chefstrateg" for en "overbetalt gætteleger" eller en "økonomi astrolog"

Plea to European leaders: stop coming to the WH, showering him with praise & leave saying how much you appreciate his leadership.

You have a world to save & you have do it on your own now. Look to each other & speak truth about him.

You have millions of Americans on your side and we will help.

Det skal lykkedes

A graph of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations at the Mauna Loa observatory, Hawaii, from 1958 to 4th February 2025. It shows carbon dioxide levels rising at an accelerating rate over the decades. This is known to be due to emissions of carbon dioxide from human activity, mainly fossil fuel burning but also deforestation. The first CO2 concentration value in March 1958 was 315 parts per million (ppm). The latest daily value is 426 ppm. The graph also shows a seasonal cycle of a few ppm within each year, which is known to be linked to the growing season in the northern hemisphere causing a temporary uptake of carbon in spring and summer and release in autumn. The graph is produced routinely by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego.

Although NOAA's page on atmospheric CO2 levels has vanished, you can still get this vital information from Ralph Keeling's team at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego keelingcurve.ucsd.edu

Don't let science be hidden

Jasmine Crockett, after accusing colleagues of castrating their Constitutional duty, said, “My job is to make sure we don’t have any kings or queens in this country, but it seems like you all have decided it’s going to be Mr. King and his queen. And y’all can pick which one is which.”

A line graph depicting rapid increase in global mean surface temperature from 1850 to 2024, especially since the 1970s. Multiple colored lines represent different datasets: Berkeley Earth, ERA5, GISTEMP, HadCRUT5, JRA-3Q, and NOAA_v6.

Global warming results from us abusing the global carbon cycle by releasing trillions of tonnes of CO₂ into the atmosphere. The only way to fix this is to stop burning fossil fuels. There is no other way.

Physics does not care about our politics, and ultimately the world will continue to warm until we get global emissions of CO2 to (net) zero.
