It's even nicer to have that big item delivered and still come out on top in gas savings.

There are cycles available for almost every type of disability – it’s actually an inclusive mode of transport that will often act as a mobility aid for people who find walking difficult, people who can't walk far and even those who cannot walk at all.

Evidence from the Netherlands (and increasingly from the UK, where new infrastructure has been built) shows that high quality cycling infrastructure is often shared with wheelchairs, mobility scooters and other assistive modes of transport.

And in general, cycling infrastructure should go hand-in-hand with other improvements to the physical environment too – like smooth, continuous footways across side roads, for example.

So in fact the truth is the opposite of the myth – cycling actually gives people with physical disabilities more transport options and independence, not less.

Seniors should have quality public transport options to use and bike/walking infrastructure for short trips or mobility scooters.

Quite the sci-fi name for fake engine noises.

Elon is also supporting right wing authoritarians who want to dismantle climate protections and promote coal, oil, and gas.

There is no one universally right way to do activism. We need a diversity of tactics.

Well done! Is there a Lemmy community where I could find more of this?

I'm just going to leave this here.

I would argue it's because of historical usage, familiarity, and resistance to change. Most countries and most people living in hot climates use Celsius.

The TL;DR hero.

100% this. It's not an either-or.
