Who would have guessed that the big private consultant companies’ fingers were all over the crappy and expensive #BOM website? It’s almost like there’s a pattern. #auspol #Accenture #Deloitte

Profoundly true and powerful article from @doctorvive.bsky.social

"Such a bloc will have no power if its leaders are not forced to resolve their ambivalence about phasing out fossil fuels"

And resolving "ambivalence" is what I meant in this post below five days ago

“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas & city center in 2021.”

Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death

The capital city is Finnish’ed with car-related fatalities.

As the US persistently focuses on itself, it increasingly feels like the rest of the world is moving on assuming a post-US future. #Trump
