I don’t know a lot about bluegrass, but what I do know starts with Earl Scruggs and the Beverley Hillbillies

Truth.
Found myself exchanging verses of the Beverley Hillbillies theme with an OR nurse last week.

In the first half of 2025, renewables became the biggest source of global electricity for the first time, as wind & solar growth exceeded global demand growth

Shocking that it's China & India leading - EU & USA have fossil power growing

Inhaler-related #greenhouse gas emissions in the VA health system dropped 68% from 2008 to 2023, primarily due to policy and formulary changes favoring lower-emission inhaler options.

ja.ma/4nYMM54
Greenhouse gas emissions from inhaled medications, 2008-2023. Emissions from SAMA & SABA-SAMA decreased, ICS-LABA increased, SABA stable. Key events: CFC inhaler phase-out, VA formulary changes favoring DPI over MDI.

I don’t hate cars. Like most North American males I was raised to think cars are cool, and as a design nerd, few objects are more eye-catching.

I hate surrendering our streets, our cities and our lives to them.

Car dependence isn’t freedom.

There's a really nice new study using phone data from Americans who relocated from one city to another to look at the effect of walkable environments on physical activity. E.g., people move TO New York and walk more, they move FROM New York and walk less www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Countrywide natural experiment links built environment to physical activity - Nature
By analysing the smartphone data of 2,112,288 participants, in particular observing and comparing the activity of the same individual in two different environments, we find that increases in the walkability of environments result in increases in daily physical activity, providing evidence of the importance of the built environment on physical health.
