How fast do we need to cut emissions?
Here I explain this last week at the World Circular Economy Forum #WCEF23 in Helsinki.
It simply is a race against time.
Make no mistake.
Stakes could not be higher.

Black people keep saying it’s systemic, and y’all don’t understand how Black cops could do this? Do you not know what “systemic” means?

The FAA hasn't conducted evacuation testing on planes since the 1990's when seat sizes were far more generous and cabin layouts were very different. We don't have realistic data about how a major incident requiring an evacuation would play out on the planes being flown today. #avgeek https://www.cntraveler.com/story/airline-seat-sizes-safety-risks-op-ed

Hired an e-cargo bike from Edinburgh Festival of Cycling to run some errands this morning. This is definitely the future of local transport. Now we just need bike parking and safe streets for bikes, everywhere.

I will continue to hold doors open for people even if they don’t thank me. I will continue to stand in line patiently at the supermarket when the store refuses to pay for more staff and thank the cashier. I will still smile at a stranger even if they think I’m weird. Because everyday we do not know what people are going through. Maybe they are in a terrible relationship and are being treated cruelly.
