If history teaches us one lesson we must never ever forget, it is
NEVER GIVE ONE MAN TOO MUCH POWER!
That's it. If we acted on that one lesson endless suffering could be avoided. #ElonMusk #Fascism #Inequality #Empathy #Politics

This is superb.

China has successfully completed the test flight of the S1500, the world’s largest airborne wind turbine, boasting a 1 megawatt (MW) capacity. Operating at an altitude of approximately 1,500 meters, the S1500 harnesses stronger and more stable high-altitude

I still have lots of questions, mainly about #Emissions but because #Ecosia is involved in the project I would hope there are some standards in place!

The Netherlands shouldn’t have a monopoly on inspiring urban transformations. Pushing back on car supremacy shouldn’t depend on topography, climate, or culture.

Reclaiming our communities from the car is about more than saving the planet. It’s about saving ourselves from the inequitable, unliveable, financially-ruinous places we’ve built.

Ten books I read this year that changed how I think about mobility:

1. The Ranstad: https://lnkd.in/eb3S_HWh
2. Roadways for People: https://lnkd.in/eeNpSG5R
3. Urban Jungle: https://lnkd.in/eHSwjU7p
4. Fietspad: https://lnkd.in/ejxjCbNW
5. Carmageddon: https://lnkd.in/eqY4NJFD
6. Paved Paradise: https://lnkd.in/e3yxZFcv
7. Traffication: https://lnkd.in/eqEbQuR2
8. Inclusive Transportation: https://lnkd.in/eucZPgpA
9. 52 Ways to Walk: https://lnkd.in/eC_8B7Ym
10. If This Street Were Mine: https://lnkd.in/ezs-b-Gv

@feather1952 I've particularly enjoyed hearing the perspectives of minorities. This #ArrestedMobility Podcast does an excellent job at looking at Urban America from a African/American perspective. I have found it very eye opening to learn about the restrictions and difference that African/American's experience living in cities and navigating them.
Also as a man it's been eye opening to hear women's perspectives too, on various other podcasts including, #TheWarOnCars

The transport sector is on track to become Australia's largest source of carbon emissions by 2030, but the federal government is developing a plan to stem to the tide. #bicyclenetwork #melbourne #auspol #BikeTooter

Another great video from #OurChangingClimate on #Nebula
The #ClimateCisis is caused by #Capitalism not the end users. To say that end users are responsible is an "insidious from of victim blaming".

Looks like #TheWarOnCars #NotJustBikes #AdamSometing #StrongTown ... have turned their first Car Enthusiast!
Some nice tips on reducing driving at the end.

Don't mind if I do a quick bit of #naturebathing

Anyone (re)read #Stark by #BenElton recently? I was wondering if it's aged well?
With "Don't Look Up" having similarities and "Glass Onion" having a poke a tech Billionaires, the book feels quite prescient.
Might read it again...

#ElonMusk is not trying to "fix" transport, he's trying to make money out of it.
