Hot take: if you can choose between an #ebike and a car, of course take the bike.

However if your choice is between a regular bike and an e-bike the former is much more environmentally friendly.

In short, biking become less and less environmentally friendly the more regular bikes get replaced with e-bikes and e-scooters.

@WhyNotZoidberg living in Japan, I think the adoption is more reasonable. The most ebikes sold are the ones with two kids seat that allow even tiny people to bring their kids to school and work. Regular bikes are hard to handle in that case. Also they are low powered and functional with common parts, easy and quick to repair
@leichtgewicht Yeah plenty of those around. Better than a car for sure.
