Project Drawdown has characterized a set of 93 technologies and practices that together can reduce concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. It’s a gigantic project with a lot of data and analyses.

In the linked video, the author goes through the measures to find which one is the most cost effective in terms of ratio of rCO2 reduction and economic cost

The maybe surprising result is that building bike infrastructure to shift a not even big percentage of travels from cars to bicycles or ebikes, is very cheap and has a huge effect on emissions.

The premise is that all solutions should be implemented to have a significant effect, but some are easier done than other.

    That works somewhat enough of the time when there are two lanes, but I meant they go anywhere from halfway to entirely into the oncoming lane. In other streets I just avoid now I have had people split the lane the other way and pass me on the right as well. I’m hoping the trail from my new place after I move will be viable as I’ll only have 2 blocks of street that way but I’m worried it will be closed during the winter.

      Wow, those are some incorrigible motherfuckers. In that case, get front and rear-facing helmet cams and call the police (and elected officials) about it so often that you become a nuisance.
