Mentions electrification: "But Electricity is Expensiiiive!"
My family's combined electricity bill for heating, air conditioning (w/ heat pump), hot water, appliances, and 'gas' for EV charging (incl. multiple road trips) is averaging $60 a month.

I have reached the pinnacle of parenthood, and it’s just everyday life in Barcelona.

Gold star ⭐️ to Whistler for this much-needed sign.
The most stressful moments for our nervous, reactive pup was when dogs came bounding at us off-leash, as the owner screamed "He's friendlyyyyyy!"

A reminder that fossil fuel companies Net0 pledges are meaningless and we need to stop pretending we can negotiate with them.
We need to start regulating them.

Hot take: one of the greatest failures of north American home design is we put bedrooms on the top floor.
It's hot.
It's bright.
Why!?!?

Way to go Canmore! Pedestrianized main street surrounded by paid parking. My urban dreams come true 😭
Our daughter safely played on the street, with the sounds of birds chirping.

The cost of Seattle’s waterfront tunnel highway…
Keep this to reference any time someone says we can’t afford the infrastructure for bikes, transit, schools, accessibility or housing

I'm honestly shocked every time I cruise by standstill traffic on my bike, and then I don't see at least 1/4 of those people commuting on bikes the next day

I've worked in Sustainability now for nearly 10 years.
Number of times I've been asked about climate change = almost zero.
Is it seriously still this societally taboo topic, with fires burning all around us?
