Hell yeah, ebikes! As a decarbonization strategy, it’s one of the most sound, but we need to have safe, separate bike lanes and infrastructure that isn’t shared with cars because car drivers are frankly not interested in sharing the road. Transportation is most often the leading cause of GHGs - that or emissions from buildings (they seem to be at parity). So if we can kick the car lobby out of state decision making for city planning and transportation, we can actually have a chance at safer, equitable single occupant transport options for all income levels, and reduce our climate impact at the same time. Who’s with me?!
