HG Wells is alleged to have remarked "Every time I see an adult on a bicycle, I no longer despair for the future of the human race”. You could see this shocking chart as an index of civilisation. A country which gets this issue so badly wrong is likely to fail in many other ways.

Shades of the Alan Partridge Christmas Special
A screenshot of a blurb explaining a scene from the Alan Partridge Christmas Special. Partridge is a satirical character played by Steve Coogan, who is written to be "the chat show host from hell."

Alan's Massive Cracker
It was supposed to be the climax of the show, breaking a world record for pulling the world's biggest Christmas cracker. Inside the cracker was a kidney dialysis machine meant for the local hospital if the record was broken. Instead the cracker caught fire (thanks to White City Pyrotechnics).

"Tackling the climate and air pollution crises requires curbing all motorised transport, particularly private cars, as quickly as possible. "Strikingly, people who cycled on a daily basis had 84% lower carbon emissions from all their daily travel than those who didn’t."

Cycling is ten times more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities
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.

DOGE has a very obvious feedback mechanism for its cuts.

If DOGE makes a big, broad cut against a million programs, people get upset about a few specific, very good ones like PEPFAR, and then that program comes back because DOGE's members are, thus, informed it was good.

I can only hope people realizing this won't damage the mechanism, because it's still useful to have professionals getting mad about some very good thing getting cut before it's brought back online as a result.

In a word, DOGE is responsive, which is unusual for the government!

I agree, but it would be more efficient to spend one hour ahead of time talking to experts or just reading up on the history of a program for [disease, student testing, nuclear safety, etc.]

Plus, some programs don't have famous proponents with time to dig into the weeds.

I'm highly sympathetic, but there really are thousands and thousands of programs and grants to cut, so I'm not sure the small team doing the cuts has the ability to go through them all one-by-one on their short timeline.

Maybe a system can be developed to assist with feedback.
