In the same vein, driving gas cars

it should increase int too

Seems to me the two biggest personal changes one can make are related to diet and transportation.

Realize the destructive nature of the animal agriculture industry, as well as the automobile industry and adjust accordingly.

Go vegan, and swap car for ebike. Hopefully inspiring others to do the same eventually.

Not true. For example, people with epilepsy use to be considered demon possessed, and were sometimes executed. This happened for at least thousands of years. There's a ridiculously long list of examples of how we have come far.

Glad to hear it's going well in Western Europe, but that's far from the norm.

My point is trees are much more than wood.

2 big problems with that statement. 1st, it's being harvested at a much greater rate than it's being replenished. Second, old trees and old forests are far more valuable to the ecosystem than the cookie cutter "forests" planted after harvests.

I ride 40mins, twice a day by ebike through mostly dirt/country roads. When weather is good, its great. Less so when rainy but still partially enjoyable. Only real concern is cars...and to be fair, deer. See them every morning, usually close up. Join me in the ebike revolution

Yeah, creepy right? Just wanted to note we eat the fruit of the fungi. The mycelium would be the "living" part.

Had like 5ish total. All good. One time I called and was quoted something horrendous, called another shop for something like half price

Tragic and far too common. About 1,000 cyclists killed annually in the U.S. Cars are a plague.

I suppose it really depends on where you live. I usually don't lock up and leave my battery in.

Yep yep, good on ya. Getting an ebike? I'm up to almost 3k miles on mine over the past 15 months. I love it
