So much of our language reflects
the common “car first” bias around our streets, & we should never forget that much of that language was the result of deliberate campaigns to specifically re-write our perspective of streets as “for cars only.” This is one of the more subtle, but important, examples.

Some good news for the transition, with less ICE cars on the road. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
We are 7 weeks into the most egregious stock market manipulations of our lifetime.
Orchestrated by a crooked president and his underlings.
Billions siphoned via false proclamations of ceasefires and peace talks.
With the criminals in charge, every day is a crime spree.
Keep Walking The Walk,Mayor Mamdani.......

This is exactly why Hungary’s elections matter so much - and they show that illiberal democracy can be reversed
💥🇭🇺With 95% of votes counted, Hungary’s map shows the opposition Tisza party crushing Fidesz 94–12 in constituencies. Péter Magyar has secured a 2/3 majority, asked President Tamás Sulyok and other Orbán loyalists to resign immediately, and announced his first visit to Warsaw.
Congratulations Hungary!
this is excellent news, it was probably having the support of vance and trump that made so many people go out and vote him out 🤣

Solar panels being set up by 3 men
China donates 5,000 solar energy systems to Cuba, government prioritizing hospitals!
Beyond the hospital network, which includes more than 280 hospitals and 430 clinics, the project will also reach some 2,000 homes in isolated rural areas.
“The city’s transition away from the car, tho fantastically chaotic, has become a global role model. Under mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social, Paris was ‘the most influential city in the world’ says Canadian urbanist Brent Toderian. Hidalgo, stepping down after 12 yrs, exulted: ‘The bike beat the car.’”
In #Basel? There is a free #music and #sustainability event this Friday at 2000, details here: www.musik-akademie.ch/en/events/de...
Just discovered that my bank #Triodos has decided to close in Germany. This will mean a nightmare of paperwork for me, with no clear pathway to an affordable and ethical replacement account- I really could do without this! Any suggestions? Needs to be ethical but also not charge a fortune
Wow. I’m speechless. Was this meant as satire?
Oooh wow! We used to have 2, both from the local shelter, but sadly his brother got run over- 6 must have been amazing! We also have 2 Indian runner ducks in the garden ( slug control and eggs!) and soon a hive of Buckfast beed (last colony didn’t survive so 🤞)
And I see you have a cat too!! It seems we are living almost parallel lives in different parts of Germany 😂
Super stats about positive change in Paris!
We installed ours at the end Nov but it was a bit more complicated as we needed a new updated fuse box and also installed storage- we decided to go further and added an EV charger ( we don’t have an EV)- currently looking at 6 years for break even on the costs -well worth it!
Tomorrow is the start of #Sustainability week #Sustainabilityweek in #Basel #Switzerland. Events are free and pretty much open to everyone:

I believe the victims of Donald Trump and Jeffrey epstein. It's disgusting what we have in the White House. I can't believe the republicans in Congress protect that creepy f***
At last, a sign the general public don't want division and hate, they want a positive alternative 💚

We’re very happy to share a new book chapter by @adamhearn.bsky.social, Jens Koehrsen & Ann-Lea Buzzi: “Realizing the Potential of Religious Environmental Engagement”. The chapter explores how Swiss religious organizations contribute to climate mitigation & sustainable development.
