Google did not have to change Google Maps to comply with Trump's order. This is a choice they are making, pretending that they are removing themselves from controversy while actually inserting themselves in the centre. There are any number of procedural hurdles they could invent to slow-walk this.

Kind of surprised not a single outlet wanted this. Maybe the interest is gone and this is just what America is now. Lots of photographers asking me about southwest Florida though!

We all know the urban greening Paris has been doing. But do we know what Warsaw Poland has been doing? Impressive. “Not so long ago, they were dominated by cars, concrete, & asphalt. Today, they're full of greenery, pedestrian-friendly, & better for the climate.” The New Center of Warsaw project.

I am sooooo tired of hearing about how we can’t have bike lanes because sometimes cyclists blow through stop signs. Do you know how many times every pedestrian has nearly been hit by a car? And yet no one is suggesting we stop building car lanes.

“Justice Huscroft huffs that cyclists don’t have to use the roads that put them at risk. That’s not the point. The point is that in going about a lawful activity, people should not have their lives needlessly imperilled by the government. I emphasize: needlessly.” - Andrew Coyne, G&M Columnist

Opinion: No one ever said there was a constitutional right to bike lanes – just a right to fundamental justice
Ford government’s decision to remove Toronto bike lanes should be subject to Charter scrutiny

This is what "both sides" journalism has wrought. A complete inability for journalists to simply state clear and obvious facts that are supported by reams of research. This is not a debate. There are not two sides. Bike infrastructure and traffic calming make streets safer.

The right-wing in the United States can’t take the risk that you might PROPERLY blame the deliberate failure to act on #ClimateChange for the record-setting #wildfires we’re going to see EVERY year from now on. And they don’t want you knowing how many wildfires happen in the United States itself.
