Transportation and climate folks are bummed bc they want a faster transition to greener modes of travel, and that won't happen if the city keeps reinforcing driving as the norm, they argue.

Here's the latest iteration of HRRR smoke model forecast. Smoke will be heavy by tomorrow afternoon with very poor visibility & air quality. There is a bit of hope that smoke will decrease on Sunday but it will still be very noticeable. Another wave will arrive Sunday night.#COwx

Lots of talk about #electricvehicles and their role in mitigating #ghgemissions w/ today's IPCC #climatechange report & BIB. EVs are crucial, but climate-forward policies & legislation must recognize that public #transit, #micromobility, & walking are lower emissions modes. .

Denver's bad air is in the news now. But the smoke gives policy makers (Governor, state bureaucrats, mayor, etc.) cover to say "oh it's just smoke from forest fires in other states." However, our Front Range air quality has been bad for decades. 1/7 kdvr.com/news/local/sun…

Would love to see RTD among the list of transit agencies participating in the #FTAClimateInitiative

Every Wednesday at 8am, students at Alameda Elementary spring from bed to be part of the “bike bus,” in which nearly 200 kids ride to school together. Watching it was for me a very emotional goodbye to the isolation and sadness of the last two years.
