Bicycle Utopia @bicycleutopia.bsky.social · 28/08/2026What if, instead of pedestrians pressing a button to beg for the traffic light to change so they can cross an intersection, cars had to do it? Not a wild utopian concept, this is reality in some cities. #bicycleutopia 020

Reposted by Bicycle UtopiaKatharine Hayhoe @katharinehayhoe.com · 30/05/2026I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.” 380153235990
Reposted by Bicycle UtopiaKatharine Hayhoe @katharinehayhoe.com · 30/05/2026And to everyone who is wondering, “how could humans be causing more than 100% of the warming?” — it’s because, according to natural factors, the earth should be cooling right now. So our emissions are offsetting that cooling AND causing all of the observed warming.
