The #climatecrisis & its associated erratic #weather have caused floods across low lying river basins, but elsewhere have deliver #drought conditions.
In #Germany, this has promoted a further decline in #river borne #freight & a move to utilise the roads for #supplychain & #logistics networks.
Its ironic that #climatechange is prompting a shift that make emissions worse, by reducing use of an established #greentransport.
However, such ironies (parallel to the use of air con) are building

Saw this postal service cargo bike yesterday in my Brussels neighbourhood.

It's weird how relying on personal transport (driving there directly) tends to make me late, while public transport tends to make me arrive ridiculously early.

Whatever went on at #BritishVolt, the UK's lack of projected #battery capacity says something about our continuing failure to organise in sectors that involve anything other than opportunities for #rentiers (some would argue BritishVolt's problems stem from its existence as a farm for taxpayer support)... we need to invest in the future not in our elites' pleasures & profits

Went to the supermarket on my bike today. A lot quicker than a car. Easier to park.
The only thing is that here in #Lincolnshire #UK I don't see anyone else going on a bike. It is not seen as 'normal'.
The irony is that the local council spend a fair amount of money on #bikepaths which are unusable. Just up the way there is a bike crossing which is dangerous & unusable, but the works must have cost the best part of a £1million to install.

Good news for #greentransport?
In 2022 (in a sector beset by #supplychain problems reducing supply), #electric #cars outsold #diesel cars for the first time, with e-cars making up 16.6% of all new car registrations while diesel dipped to around 10%....
If this is part of the answer to reaching #netzero then we should be happy... the question is whether the #climatecrisis is beyond a shift in automotive transport?
