The conventional wisdom in home building was that constructing units that are both energy efficient and powered by renewable energy substantially increases the cost. But two new affordable housing developments in Northfield and Faribault show otherwise.

Having Evie and HourCar available helped us feel more confident in our decision to go down from 2 to 1 car in 2021. Losing HourCar and Evie will likely negatively impact other households looking to do the same. We need *more* public investment in resources like this, transit and bike share.

Follow the money. I am sure Waymo and other similar services and “self drive” are trying to break the chain. Affordable independent EV access threatens them. Indeed this is not good.

We can't really be ready to kill shared mobility in Minneapolis and Saint Paul, can we? Like we think Uber and Waymo are going to replace biking and actual, honest car resource sharing? Ha. You're killing me.

As the founding executive director of HOURCAR, let me say that it is imperative someone steps forward to rescue car sharing AND bike sharing in the Twin Cities. HOURCAR, Evie and Nice Ride--all community-led nonprofits--were beautiful systems that allowed so many of us to live nearly car free.

ICE is fighting voluntary departures tooth and nail because it permits someone to seek legal re-entry to the United States. If someone is deported and they've been in the U.S. for > a yr unlawfully then there's a statutory 10-year bar on reentry. I've seen ICE *appeal* a grant of voluntary departure

Monopoly utilities successfully lobbying politicians to weaken or remove the electricity transmission provisions from the draft energy permitting bill would be a big deal. The transmission bits are among the best parts of the bill for people who want more clean electricity built and used.

One thing I find endlessly funny about the rise of AI is that it has revealed that there is a large number of people who believe that the reason they wrote essays at school or university is their teachers were desperately waiting for them to provide a definite answer to “Lear: what’s up with him?”

Our built infrastructure robs kids of their freedom of independent mobility. Streets are dominated by oversized vehicles, piloted by aggressive and distracted drivers where one mistake can turn lethal. We sacrificed child development to subsidize the auto industry.

The majority of Minnesotans ride bikes. The majority of Minnesotans also say they'd bike more if there was better and safer infrastructure to do so. @mndot.mn.gov's update to the Statewide Bicycle+ System Plan is good, but does it go far enough? Read our summary ⤵️⤵️⤵️ www.bikemn.org/mndots-draft...

It's a huge improvement over the last version. But does it fall short of the clear public desire to make biking, walking, and rolling safer in Minnesota?
