People think of electric scooters, or e-scooters, as environmentally friendly ways to get around town. Study from North Carolina State University finds it’s not that simple: shared e-scooters may be greener than most cars, but they can be less green than several other options. “So if you’re substituting car rides, it looks great. But the challenge comes up in that half the time you’re substituting walking or biking,” Jeremiah Johnson, corresponding author of the study and an associate professor of civil, construction and environmental engineering at NC State said . Both walking and biking are rated substantially greener than a ride on a scooter. Companies use cars and trucks to redistribute the bicycles in their service area, which can sometimes make them less environmentally friendly. They are picked up, because they had to be removed from the city streets. And so there’s unnecessary driving to pick up a fully charged scooter, to bring it to a charging station, which it doesn’t need and then redistribute it the next day,” said Johnson. 🛴🚲
The Librexpression centre for freedom of expression (Libex) has organised a cartoon competition on the threats that this fundamental right, and the political satire which is an expression of it are currently facing even in Europe. Freedom of expression political satire and therefore democracy are nowadays in danger. It is the reason why Libex and its partners Cartooning for Peace and Voxeurop have invited to participate to a competition on this theme 160 cartoonists from 44 of the 47 member countries of the Council of Europe. 118 of them from 32 countries responded, and sent 287 cartoons. The international jury has selected the 55 cartoons presented here, and in the exhibition organised at the Euro-Mediterranean Centre for Free Expression (Libex) – Giuseppe Di Vagno Foundation in Conversano (Italy) from 25 September. This is my drawing which is included in main exhibition between 55 other cartoons. ✌️✏️
