@Mr_Gee_123123 @BBCNews Only you don't as they are vastly more efficient than combustion engines. Most of the battery power goes to propulsion. At least 80% of petrol/ diesel energy is just lost to the environment

Electric cars make up one in four sold in November bbc.in/41mYkXE

@Wonkothesane15 @Jayne82526450 @Chris_Boardman Have a look at the Dutch data. They should be paid to cycle based on the money they save the state in relation to health care

Now for the rest of the country 👇

@iscor56 @Chris_Boardman Which apparel manufacturers? Bike manufacturers have sold the bikes and unlike motorists most are not on monthly plans. Hence people keep them

@Chris_Boardman Why are so many bicycle and apparel manufacturers going bust?

@but_cyclists At least she seems to accept she did something wrong 😔

"just seems very unfair"

@ThinkAppraiser @RampCapitalLLC So something needs to change. Increased car use leads to Increased obesity and long term health issues. Driving to a gym to go on a treadmill or static bike is peak absurdity

@dhplumstead @RampCapitalLLC pretty much 97% of the USA you need a car.

What does France know that they aren’t telling us?

@ThinkAppraiser @RampCapitalLLC Where in the world does owning a car make sense?

@RampCapitalLLC Real butter, real sugar, Lots of walking because having a car there makes no sense

@UKHospKate How much do you think 4 tickets to the big match along with travel and 2 hotel rooms for a match day weekend will cost. I would suggest over £500. As such I don't think there will be much belt tightening over £5

This is not just "tourists" it is those visiting family and friends across different parts of Wales, sports fans travelling to Cardiff, to support the national feam in the big match. If it costs a family of 4 an extra £5 a night, that's money they can't spend in local economy

@mwt2008 You won't regret it

My #HeatPump install is scheduled for the 25th November and should take a maximum of 4 days. My gas meter removal has been booked in for the 9th of December. Can’t wait to disconnect from the gas grid. #NetZero #Climate #AirPollution #Health

@DavidDavisMP Not forgetting those poor families who scrimp and save for their private jet flight to Florida. Double vindictiveness!

The VAT on private schools is a vindictive piece of class warfare which will hurt parents who scrimp and save to pay school fees.

@NFBUK The child wasn't on the crossing. They just ran into the cycle lane. The other cyclists should give way to pedestrians. There remains an issue with the paint only crossings. Chris Boardman wants to roll them out on minor roads. But there is no offence without flashing lights.

WARNING: We filmed at the Elephant & Castle Floating bus stop late last month. The clip includes a rental e-bike rider crashing into a child. The floating bus stop designs are not safe & they need to be urgently halted please.

@AntiWuCoalition @Boenau Probably time to sell the car then. Happier life all round!

Bicycling isn't just a mode of transportation, it's a powerful tool against depression and anxiety.

@FuckCarsReddit One of my favourite ones. Thamesmead

Post your favorite "Desire Paths". These are paths that naturally form as a result of bad planning.

@the_vp6 @colin_boyle_ @GreenpeaceUK One person and a phone / wallet normally

@colin_boyle_ @GreenpeaceUK Who were carrying what?

Check this out - this is the power of cycle lanes! 👇🚴

@penninehiker @GreenpeaceUK An educated guess might be the lack of a proper segregated cycle lane in your area?

@GreenpeaceUK So why are all the electric scooters & bikes using the pavements in my area?

@EllyBakerAM @MayorofLondon @guidedogs @NFBUK It was clear. However, we are ignoring the real danger on the roads. Once we have dealt with motor vehicles, we can then look at lower risk incidents

@EllyBakerAM @MayorofLondon @guidedogs @NFBUK Inappropriate to who? Hopefully you are asking for car free streets and a pan london 20mph zone

I have written today to @MayorofLondon to again raise my concerns about bus stop bypasses and their impact on access to public transport. I sincerely hope we will see change on the ground - instead of a seemingly unstoppable rollout of inappropriately designed infrastructure.

@crepycidon @Now_Being_Laura @ASPRoadSafety 5 people killed by drivers each day would probably not support this argument

@Now_Being_Laura @ASPRoadSafety The speed limits are set for what it safe and believe it or not most drivers have a good sense of what speed is ‘right’ Very few of those drivers will be ‘boy racers’ so if so many you ask - is the limit right? But you have Ukraine. You will just do as your told

Driver detected at 60mph in a 30 limit on the A371, Castle Cary & seen passing over a 30mph painted road roundel at the time! Our attendance was as a result of complaints from local residents. An hour long check at this location resulted in 109 excess speed offences! #FATAL5

@ChicagoTafia @BBCWalesNews Might as well do 100 then. Someone else further up the road is dead, but the 5yr old is fine. What a peculiarly odd comment

@BBCWalesNews At 30mph the car would have already passed.

'If the driver was travelling faster than 20mph, we would have been in a much worse situation' bbc.in/3ZFhsPH

@JamesMelville Parody account?

@Wwfcwolf1 @mwt2008 So presumably you have a heat pump? We are really pleased with ours. And it is quiet

@mwt2008 No.

It seems someone has objected to my #HeatPump planning permission application on the grounds of noise. I think they have got mixed up and think it’s air conditioning as they mention sleeping with the windows open in summer at night. So I entered a comment of support but missed the typos before submitting 🤦‍♂️ #NetZero #Climate
