@TheWarOnCars Isn’t cars spying on driver behavior a good deal? There’s too many roads to effectively enforce against bad driving behavior. Capitalism won’t solve the problem and industry looks to reduce their lawsuit losses. We should be asking for additional data such as not slowing down when pedestrian and bikes are present, in school zones, and transit accessible crosswalks.

"The Inuit way of life — I am Inuit — is often described as a subsistence way of life. Depending on your definition of the word, we’re either just getting by, harvesting for food and shelter what we need to keep our physical bodies alive and moving, or we’re living in a way that allows us to obtain the necessities... The lifestyle nurtures a connection with the Earth and a soul-level respect and gratefulness for Her providence. Our lifestyle gives wellness."

It's gross that fossil fuel companies are sponsoring national cycling teams.

Shell sponsors British Cycling.

Let's remember that during World War II, Shell supported Allied forces, but also had a Nazi-supporting branch called Rhenania-Ossag that fueled the German war efforts.

In order to achieve this goal, we need to phase out 2.4 million every single year for the next 27 years. This is where the math gets a little scary.

"Today's actions by the Florida state government are an attempt to bring our country back to a 19th century America where Black life was not valued, nor our rights protected. It is imperative that we understand that the horrors of slavery and Jim Crow were a violation of human rights and represent the darkest period in American history. We refuse to go back. The NAACP has been fighting against malicious actors such as those within the DeSantis Administration for over a century, and we're prepared to continue that fight by any means necessary. Our children deserve nothing less than truth, justice, and the equity our ancestors shed blood, sweat, and tears for."- NAACP President & CEO Derrick Johnson.
