'Social' media is creating monsters... yet it's controlled only by ...monsters. Have we given away control over our society to a few, billionaire-controlled corporations? Take it back! #peace #wellbeing #sustainability www.mozillafoundation.org/en/campaigns...
Graphic of busy car-filled road and text stressing that car dependency is the opposite of freedom. Mobility freedom comes from mobility choices. Graphic by the Urban Truth Collective.
Gas price hikes & shortages “fuel” controversy, especially when they’re “driven” by an illegal war.

A copy of the book “Life After Cars: Freeing ourselves from the tyranny of the automobile” by Sarah Goodyear and Doug Gordon, hosts of the War on Cars podcast.
Great read, will feel familiar to regular listeners but a solid primer on wide range issues around road safety, and tips on how to get involved locally. Making things better, safer, more accessible for all only works when people get involved.
“The climate scientists we surveyed were unambiguous: current economic models can’t capture what matters most – the cascading failures and compounding shocks that define climate risk in a warmer world – and could undermine the very foundations of economic growth.”
Should be the top story everyday.
