Antarctic research station Neumayer Station III, a long white building with red and blue trim, on the top and bottom, respectively, is elevated on stilts above a snowy landscape. In front of the station can be seen a partially visible lid for the garage access ramp, when it's open.

@brenttoderian.bsky.social There’s the infrastructure for it though. I used to cycle everywhere, then when we moved to Dublin I gave up after being knocked off my bike a few times by people opening car doors etc. The UK isn’t much better: very few dedicated cycle paths

“Dutch people cycle an average of 2.6km each per day. If this pattern was replicated worldwide, annual carbon emissions would drop by 686 million tonnes. This mammoth figure exceeds the entire carbon footprint of most countries, including the UK, Canada, Saudi Arabia and Australia.” @euronews.com

Cycling like the Dutch would slash the world’s carbon footprint
If everybody cycled like the Dutch, we could offset the UK or Australia’s entire carbon footprint.
