Active travel can help tackle the climate crisis earlier than electric vehicles – even if you swap the car for a bike for just one trip a day.

    My city just put in a huge bike lane on a major thoroughfare; cars use it as a turning lane.

      I was taking my kid on a bike ride a few months ago and there is a 2 way bike lake on one side, that used to be a turning lane. There was a car in the bike lane and i just stoped in front of her and said "yo this is a bike lane wtf" to her and had a stand off for a minute, until she got into the car lane.

    I recently moved to a new place and people were expecting me to buy a new car.

    Nope, I bought a cycle. I don't need a car unless it's absolutely essential.
