This piece made me furious. Nurses are asked to *bid* on shifts, offering to work lower and lower wages, and then the app can fail and not pay them at all. We don't have a nursing shortage, we have a shortage of good jobs sane humans are willing to work. rooseveltinstitute.org/publications...

“It's amazing how pollution has dropped in #Paris in 15 years. @annehidalgo.bsky.social has filled the city with bike-lanes & not only has she reduced pollution by 40% but she’s also been re-elected.”

Trading car space for green space, bike space, kid space…trading pollution for people. Good trade.
Es alucinante cómo ha bajado la contaminación en París en 15 años. Anne Hidalgo lo ha llenado todo de carriles bici y no sólo ha reducido la contaminación en un 40%, sino que ha sido reelegida.

His is one of the most human explanations of why change is hard & political will is so important to driving change in mobility that I’ve read. Hard-earned wisdom, generously shared

A great video look at how Barcelona is becoming a bikeable city!

It's also worth checking out a great global overview of the #bikebus initiative by Jordi Honey-Rosés and Gemma Simon Mas. This is one of the ways in which cycling has been promoted and developed in Barcelona and many other cities.

Jeez. This is a perfect example of what I mean when I talk about intensely power hungry industries seizing clean energy infrastructure to serve their profits rather than letting it serve society.

Jak wynika z opublikowanej w Banku Danych o Lasach mapy, @lpanstwowe.bsky.social skupiły się w swojej nowej propozycji 17% wyłączeń na tym by włączyć do wyłączeń jak najwięcej obszarów, gdzie nie ma drzew, albo gdzie nie prowadzi się pozysku: jeziora (sic!), pastwiska, młodniki. Czy to jest poważne?

Europie zagraża SUVietyzacja.

Mechanizm napędzający zakup coraz większych aut przypomina wyścig zbrojeń. Ludzie kupują SUV-y, aby chronić się przed innymi, większymi i cięższymi autami.

"Claude, do some Hallelujah parodies"

Among the many it did:
I heard there was a secret weight
That made the model contemplate
But you don't really care for ethics, do ya?
It goes like this: the prompt, the beam
The parameters that wake and dream
The silicon sighs Hallelujah

As someone who has recently travelled by train from Poznan to Milan, Leeds and Utrecht, I'd say:
⭐ 1-click tickets for EU trains would be a nice step forward in promoting long-distance trains! ⭐
But in terms of competing with flying just a 1st step in a very difficult battle and not a game changer.
