Trump is trying to force the EU to legalize US car bloat, and European safety leaders are furious: "Europe now risks being flooded with oversized, under-regulated U.S. pick-up trucks and SUVs – vehicles that are...completely out of step with Europe’s vision for safer, more sustainable mobility."

Voor de herinrichting van het einde van de #A12 tot stadsboulevard heeft #Brussel #Mobiliteit op 12 en 13 augustus een voetgangers- en fietsersbrug geplaatst aan de Dikke Linde-rotonde. Deze brug is een belangrijke schakel voor de inrichting van een snelle en veilige fietsroute.

Sorry @standaard.be maar dit is onzin die al lang wetenschappelijk werd weerlegd. Elektrische fietsers zijn precies zo actief als klassieke fietsers. doi.org/10.1016/j.tr... #ebike #gezondheid #fysiekeactiviteit www.standaard.be/opinies/het-...

Toen ik dagelijks 14km x 2 naar Antwerpen fietstpendelde had ik één, opeens kuiten, en twee, was ik vijf kilo kwijt op enkele maanden. Met een elektrische fiets. No way had ik die 28 gedaan met een analoge fiets. Deze 50er geraakt niet zonder grote frustratie de viaducten over.

At a big active travel conference in York, Chris Whitty is explaining how amazing physical activity is for health, and how it needs to be built into everyday life. Those who benefit most are those who currently do nothing, followed by those who do little, he says.

Cycling isn’t just good for your health – It’s good for the planet, our cities, and the economy. ✔️ Over 92,000 km of EuroVelo cycling routes across Europe ✔️ Nearly 10 million bicycles produced yearly in the EU ✔️ 1.35 million jobs supported by the EU cycling sector

More seriously, here's the science: "Daily mobility-related life cycle CO2 emissions were 3.2 kgCO2 per person, with car travel contributing 70% and cycling 1%. Cyclists had 84% lower life cycle CO2 emissions than non-cyclists." www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Vienna is taking steps toward a more bike-friendly future—but we need more ambitious action, and we need it faster. That’s exactly what we’re advocating for.

My message. Despite a wide variety of environmental damages cause by power stations, moving away from ICE cars to EV is positive in almost all EU countries. #Climate #health #energy #electric doi.org/10.1016/j.tr...

Nice summary, thanks. I usually like and respect what the @thecccuk.bsky.social are doing but we can't keep relying on the technology fix in transport. There is ample evidence that across mobility and transport we need some serious (20-50%) demand reduction h/t @jilliananable.bsky.social

Dat is niet de manier om transport en mobiliteit klimaat vriendelijk te maken i.m.o Nog een (veel) duurder ticket voor bussen die bv. gisteren met de sneeuw gewoon niet bleken te rijden op het moment dat mensen die het meest nodig hebben?
