This video camera study showed that less than 5% of people on bikes break traffic laws while riding, yet 66% of people do so when driving. And if you REALLY want even MORE bike-riders to obey laws, build more protected bike infrastructure. Via @carltonreid forbes.com/sites/carltonreid…

Inspired by the natural surroundings of @banffcentre and my passion for waterways of these lands, I was able to cobble together this humble video poem offering with my minimal editing skills. Follow the River.

"For the reader of Universities on Fire and The Uninhabitable Earth, the question is—how will our colleges and universities adapt to a climate emergency? Or, a COVID pandemic–informed re-working of this question would be to ask, what might we lose in adapting?"

Eight years ago, I was ~2 weeks away from setting off on a 7,000km bike ride across Canada that would change my life.
It’s still a trip seeing Hell of a Ride on bookstore shelves. If you see it in the wild anywhere, I’d love to hear about it.

Because of climate change, Nova Scotians are experiencing more intense storms and frequent fires. This past semester, @kingsjournalism worked to cover the human toll those disasters are taking in the Maritimes and beyond as part of the @cdp_community.
