Sebastian LaubeI was a bit disappointed how poorly the public transit performed in #Amtserdam today (even before the protestors fucked it up).
A lot of delays, trams and busses canceled and on some lines with 10 minute intervals even while the day.
Expected more.
TonyIn a number of respects my recent visit to #brisbane shows it taking significant steps in improving #publictranspot. It seems quite #bike and #cycling friendly with some great infrastructure such as 2 way separated bike lanes on one way streets. I also took great advantage of the very flexible e-scooter program. But I was most impressed by the silent and clean #electric #buses
First leg of the return “train” journey from BNE-MELB is a 4 hr bus trip on this little beauty. This was known and scheduled when I booked. I understand it is due to major tack works: fair enough! Bus is full. No food. No drinks. No smoking. No talking ( just kidding with the last one 😂). #publictranspot #buses #trains
Today I commence my BNE-MELB #nswtrainlink train journey home. I’ve had an interesting long weekend exploring Brisbane using Beam e-scooter service. Have to admit I was a bit hesitant but took the plunge and so glad I did. Actually had a ball and found the service super flexible and convenient. I used the daily pass system which gives 90 min of travel in the 24 hr period for $14. I ran over one day and incurred the $0.65/min casual rate; I should have taken another day pass 😕. The purple scooters are “everywhere” around central BNE ( and their orange competitors) so I never had to search for one. All worked well and are quite zippy with a max 25kph limit. In geolocked areas speed is auto limited further (10kph in heavy pedestrian precincts) which I actually liked. Occasionally speed was restricted in “inappropriate” areas, but 95% spot on. In “no ride” zones the scooter turns off. I came away feeling what a great system! Highlight was scooting out to a Happy Valley wedding event in my tuxedo 🤣 #activetransport #cycling #scooter #ebike #eScooter #brisbane #publictranspot
Off on a bit of an adventure on the NSW TrainLink XPT Southern Cross Melbourne to Sydney overnight. #Melbourne #trains #publictranspot
ChirpyTurnipBack in NZ, first time back in Wellington CBD to catch up with some friends. Just arrived at the station to catch a train back home....but no.
All the trains are stopped.
Replaced by buses.
The next one goes in an hour.
So now I'm stuck here.
Why is this country such a backward sh*t hole????
Seriously??? How hard can it possibly be not to screw up practically everything?

Empiricism85% of all new Ecars in the #USA are SUVs!
Oh great. Folk can charge their oversized SUVs & make believe that they are doing their bit for the planet.
Well, they'd buy the SUVs anyway.

The Climate Denier's Playbook
From the minds that brought you Climate Town, comes… a podcast that's suspiciously similar to Climate Town. Rollie Williams (Climate Town) and Nicole Conlan (The Daily Show) are two comedians with Master's Degrees in Climate Science & Policy and Urban Planning. But don’t get too excited, because they’re here to examine the pervasive myths and misinformation campaigns that are making it obnoxiously difficult to address the looming climate crisis you've probably heard about. If you're looking to get your hands on some of the absolute coldest, hardest, climate changing-est facts to help sift through the noise, then you've come to the right place, brother.
