Writing, books, climate change is scary and so are nuclear weapons and their outdated policies, coffee, sometimes photography.

Working towards a future where all humans are liberated.

ASK A SCIENTIST: How can we scale up freight electrification in the near term? Sam Wilson, Senior Vehicles Analyst at UCS, shares insights on making electric trucks a reality faster.
Ask a Scientist: What’s the Future for Trucks?
Big rigs, box trucks, and buses are part of our lives and economies. Almost everything we buy is carried by trucks, which move billions of tons of goods each year. School buses that bring kids to school, city buses that serve commuters, garbage and recycling trucks that keep streets clean, 18-wheele

Trucks move billions of tons of cargo each year—including those Valentine’s chocolates you ate. But, trucks are also responsible for a massive amount of air pollution from on-road vehicles. Electric trucks are on the road NOW. Accelerating their deployment saves lives & money. ⚡🚚❤️

Today is #TransitEquityDay! More transportation options—like transit, walking & biking—benefit the environment, economy, and social equity. Yet, our system prioritizes car dependence due to outdated policies and lobbying. It’s time to invest in a cleaner, fairer future.
