From Sierra Club: Stop a #Climate Disaster in #Alaska! ConocoPhillips' Willow Project, one of the largest proposed new oil schemes on US public land, would create as much pollution as 76 coal plants and threaten wildlife and local communities. It could undo #cleanenergy progress we've made and lock us into #fossilfuels for another 30 years. Tell Biden: We need climate solutions, not more #oil projects on public lands.

A thing about Mastodon that I didn't realize I'd missed from pre-algorithm Twitter is the sheer randomness of the content. No longer honed to be hyper-engaging (usually by being scary or enraging) I now see weird experiments, fun scientific papers, random shitposts. Of course it's not all exactly in my wheelhouse, but that makes it simultaneously more *interesting* while being less *addictive*. The whole experience feels a lot healthier for my brain.

💥 New study: E-Bikes are the most attractive mode of electrified transport in Germany.

Further insights:

• median e-bike trip 15 km
• annual e-bike sales now 2 million units
• # of German households with at least one e-bike crossed 5 million in 2021 (quadrupling since 2014)

Watch out for quite some changes in the mobility space in the coming years. Not only in Germany, of course.
