@mark-carney.bsky.social “Israel deliberately targeted 158 ambulances, killing 128+ health workers and paramedics, and injuring 332 others since March 2—an average of 2 killed per day for almost 90 days.” M.S. UN Yet oddly, our government keeps pledging their loyalty? Why?

He said it himself. He loves the poorly educated.

Israelis have learned they can rape anyone they please & world leaders will not speak out against them. Their protection by Israel/US grant them seeming immunity from media outlets or even international law. This will continue until Israel/US are dealt with on a global scale

Paris air pollution is down 50% after its radical bike-friendly transformation Cars have been banned from more than 100 streets. Tens of thousands of parking spots have been eliminated. Hundreds of miles of bike lanes have been added. And air pollution is plummeting

@mark-carney.bsky.social Israel is explicitly warning Christian residents in southern Lebanon not to welcome Muslim residents among them, threatening to bomb Christian neighborhoods. Israel is now searching for Muslims hiding in the attics of Christians. It’s not 1944. Sanction Israel now!

“Compared with non-active travelers, the cyclists had a 19% lower risk of all-cause dementia, a 22% lower risk of Alzheimer's, a 40% lower risk of young-onset dementia (before the age of 65), & a 17% lower risk of late-onset dementia.” Connecting bike-riding with reduced dementia risk. #UrbanTruth

This video camera study showed that less than 5% of people on bikes broke traffic laws while riding bikes, yet 66% of people did so while driving. And perhaps even more importantly, if you REALLY want even MORE bike-riders to obey laws, build more protected bike infrastructure. Via @carltonreid.com

Well, it’s not AI, it’s real and very embarrassing…..

My homeland is leading the world right now.

FYI ! Thanks, Andrea.......

A decade ago, analysts were calling Spain a cautionary tale. Too much solar, too fast! Today, Spain is rapidly on its way to having the cheapest power in Europe. Maybe this time, solar naysayers will learn... haha, jk, they'll just move the goalposts.

Very good article. Nobody ever questions how much money is spent on car parking spaces. Especially for civil servants. www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2026...

Oh, FFS 🤦🏻‍♀️

Israel has killed nine paramedics in just 72 hours in southern Lebanon and it’s business as usual. Now imagine the outrage if that was nine Israeli paramedics. The entire world would be screaming and condemning it as terrorism.

“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas and city center in 2021.”

Imagine that

This week marks the 2-year anniversary of the incredible UNITED24 ambassador: Hollywood star Hilary Swank! For 2 years, Hilary has supported 🇺🇦 via UNITED24, using her voice and platform to draw attention to russia’s ongoing war. Thank you both, for everything you have done and continue to do!

Drivers: "All these bike lanes and restrictions on where I can drive and park! It's almost like my car isn't welcome in the city." You're so, so close to getting it.

Have you seen this @daraobriain.bsky.social? Better view than London, I'd say!

This is how the Israeli minister Ben-Gvir is treating the European hostages Israel kidnapped in International Waters. Where is the outrage? Our Media and Politicians are owned, get them OUT.

Not a single mention of Trump or ICE in an article wondering why tourists are shying away from visiting America for the World Cup www.bbc.com/sport/footba...

The world’s largest sand battery got through Finland’s harshest winter in years. 2,000 tonnes of sand, heated to 500-600°C by cheap power, feeding district heating in Pornainen. And it worked. Result from one install: oil down 100%, emissions down 70%. Industrial process heat is the real prize.

So today International Gymnatics federation decided to lift (!) all restrictions for Russian and Belarusian athletes . Was it Russian bombing of Dnipro today that wounded a kid that’s only a 5 months old that inspired World Gymnastics ? Or Russian drone bombing a bus stop in Kherson this morning ?

how he starts calm and bursts into tears hearing about his little daughter he hadn’t seen because Russia kept him a prisoner 💔❤️‍🩹 was hard to translate this particular call from a Ukrainian defender , but I felt world needs to see and hear it.

Riding bikes is 10X more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities. And that’s just the climate emissions. Doesn’t include the massive public & personal cost difference, the air & noise pollution difference, the massive space difference, etc, etc…Via @theconversation.bsky.social

Very good point (among the rest) about the cost of providing CAR parking spaces irishcycle.com/2026/05/12/k...

Spiralling global temperatures (1850-2026) It is exactly 10 years since I first put this animated graphic of changes in global temperature online. #ClimateSpiral It instantly went viral. People watched it over and over again. It still offers the power to shock a decade on.

Interesting. This must be a new kind of chess where you compete to put the pieces back where they were before you smacked them off the board.

Costa Rica passed a law in 2018 that required electric utilities to install fast chargers every 50 miles on national highways. Tax breaks have made Costa Rica a pioneer in electric vehicles. Costa Ricans are buying electric vehicles at 3 times the rate of Americans. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/03/b...

Almost 100% of new cars sold in Norway last year were electric. Not just because of oil wealth. Because of carbon taxes, EV incentives, and thirty years of consistent policy. New newsletter: Norway: The World's Most Instructive Energy Paradox janrosenow.substack.com/p/norway-the...

“One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.” “Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath Some costs are savings.

Ya, the left really needs to tone down the rhetoric....

King Charles III told the US Congress that the same resolve shown after NATO invoked Article 5 following 9/11 is now needed to defend Ukraine and its people, linking today’s fight to a century of UK-US joint action in major wars and security crises. #Ukraine

Pollution levels in Paris after 10 years of advancing sustainable transport.

IF YOU BUILD A BIKE LANE THAT DOESN'T CONNECT TO ANOTHER BIKE LANE THEN YOU DIDN'T BUILD A BIKE LANE

well... THAT's pretty eye opening, actually, Mike, to just say it out loud like that. Did that sound different in your head?

This could be Ireland, if we could just build the infrastructure

Heat pumps are the most efficient heating technology ever invented. They harvest and compress pre existing heat in the air, ground or water and transport it where it is needed. That energy is all around us. And it does not have to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.

Build a good bike lane - it'll get used. Rialto, Dublin. 14th April 2026

the fact that christians were more upset about this ai generated trump pic but not when he said he was gonna wipe off an entire civilization shows how bankrupt white evangelicalism is

34… 4… what’s a little exaggeration of 30 ships amongst friends? (4 ships transited yesterday)

If the world had followed ambitious climate scenarios, global oil demand would be at least 20% lower than it is today - about the same volume of oil that flows through the Strait of Hormuz.

Current status of the Strait of Hormuz dispute

He is correct. It is right-wing news saying one outlandish thing after another to get stoopid people to agree and educated to debate. Causing debate and division. "Left wing news" spends its time countering with overly polite reporting, not to offend right wingers.

Follow this thread. Most likely, and of course, all speculation right now, this is why Melania did her 6 min statement today. Amanda Ungaro was brought here as a 17-year-old model. She flew to NYC on Epstein's private plane. 1/2

European power prices are split since the US-Iran conflict. Gas-reliant markets like Italy and Ireland have seen high prices (€140/MWh) while renewable rich regions including Spain, Portugal and Sweden see far lower prices (€40/MWh). These are average wholesale daily prices (8am to 8pm).
