The problem with Alberta is that back in the Devonian a bunch of phytoplankton died, and mats of organic sludge formed and were buried and diagenised into petroleum and somehow that became our greatest achievement.

Situated 60 kilometres west of Shanghai, Kunshan is “small” city home to two million residents, and a number of bike producers including Giant and Shimano. In recent years, it has established its brand as a cycling city, as part of a strategy to put itself on the map as “Kunshan Innovation Valley”.🧵

Wow. When I was there 20 years ago this was still decked. (Though I was told to walk on the nailheads. In case.)
20ish years ago, at another cannery upcoast of this, Butedale, I saw dozens of barrels that the caretaker said were full of PCBs. Dock under them was still solid then. Now?

Nice. A growing list of winter cycling cities. Big fan here of Peterborough's Winter Wheels. And B!Ke too. Tires, tips, tools, confidence building, and way more.
Want more people to ride during the winter? Follow this lead, and give willing bike commuters free winter tires.

"Atlantification" of the Arctic Ocean first noted almost 75 years ago, though without that label. Nordic scientists were recording temperature and wind change, calling it 'climatic changes." Scientists in Canada were among those paying attention.
