The numbers went up since the mass adoption of electric bikes. This caused especially elderly people to drive twice as fast as they could before, with heavier bikes they can’t control as well and they generally don’t wear helmets.
The next big problem are young people doing what young people do but now with electric assistance
Most people who ride bikes just ride bikes. And a minority are what you call “cyclists”.
You’re lumping them all together and are part of the problem. Dick.
Those are indeed special situations where cats are basically an invasive species.
Here in Europe the correlation between cats and bird population is not so strong. While destruction of habitat and the crash in insect numbers are the big culprits.
Housecats were actually keeping the bird population healthy for decades by eliminating the weak. Of course now that habitat destruction and toxins made entire populations weak it is a problem.
But removing housecats to solve it is akin to drinking out of paper straws to solve plastic pollution. It helps, but it doesn’t do anything substantial.
Your yard in your summer residence then. Jeez
Bring back the flappers!!!
I’m deranged by David Bowie
People are concerned or outraged again in the name of someone else. In this case Salma Hayek. Usually using that she tells the story of how uncomfortable she felt, leaving out the fact that she felt uncomfortable because of the snake. Not this.
Hold on a minute. Does this mean health insurance in the States is linked to employment? So you lose your job, you lose your health insurance?
That’s rather rude, and frankly, uncivilised.
When people talk about mass transit they never have your scenario in mind. It’s a bullshit argument against doing anything.
You think construction companies enjoy having their men and tools stuck in traffic surrounded by about 50% of cars that shouldn’t and wouldn’t be there if people had valid choices?
It’s an and-and story. No-one in their right mind, except for rabid edgy internet communists wants to ban cars altogether.
If only there would be viable alternatives for the mass transit of people. It would free up the road for those who like to or absolutely have to drive.
So often forgotten as an argument. Driving would be great if those who don’t want to are not forced to.
The UK has some of the best produce in the world. What the average person at home does is of course something else but that’s no different in a lot of countries.
As someone mentioned rationing didn’t help the image but also the drabness of industrial canned food in the brown seventies. And people just forgot how to cook.
