How the pandemic showed cities what they could be like, fewer cars, more 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️ how can we reinforce those choices & behaviours? If boroughs removed some parks on street & replaced w car share how 30 households with 30 cars could drop cars to 14 & use space differently.🌏🌍

@carsharing held a coffee /cocktail (deoending on your time zone!) chat to talk all things mobility including Have we reached peak car? Whether when we identify less with our stuff & the need to own stuff people will be more relaxed about sharing! 🤔 🧵

The new year is all about resolutions. Every Commute Counts continues our resolution to reduce carbon emissions in the region through ride share. Be a part of it by signing up for a vanpool, or logging your "green" commute today. Visit bit.ly/36dmglU for more info.

The Department of Transportation has $1.75 billion in federal funding available for cities to make their public transit stations more accessible. We’re looking at you, NYC, the city with the least amount of ADA-compliant transit stations in the country. nytimes.com/2022/07/26/us/po…

So I’ll repeat — we DO need to replace the current # of ICE vehicles with a LOT FEWER EVs. It’ll take a LOT of work on infrastructure, including the transformation of millions of private parking spaces. Unlike driverless cars, it IS part of the solution & needs to happen quickly.

It was a hot day, but so worth it to be out at the Parkland Plaza Grand Opening Saturday to talk with folks about sustainable driving habits including vanpools to work. If you've been thinking about ditching your solo commute, now is the time. Sign up at bit.ly/36dmglU

Tweeps, just a reminder that urban transport is essentially about how to use available space efficiently:

Although we successfully marked 25 years of carsharing in British Columbia last month, we’re not quite ready to stop celebrating! Many members continue to share their favourite #ModoMoments with us and you can discover their stories here: ➡️ modo.coop/blog/bc-carsharing…

How did we get here? What messaging was used to enforce our car-centric society? Where in the world are we going? @innovation_dj asks @PeterNorton12 these questions and more. Catch up on this #SUMC2022 plenary panel youtu.be/-hmCxkhmunE
