โ€œNobody bikes in the winterโ€ is a sorry little excuse that spineless council members and mayors give to avoid challenging car-centrism.

The hard truth about the consequences of the #ClimateCrisis โ€” wildfires, floods, storms, droughts, heat waves and more โ€” wonโ€™t come from climate activists who are too easily ignored or even vilified.
