The Climate Report for 2/24/22 is part two of our EV Episode, as well as headlines on gender-based climate studies and action oriented research on food and laundry habits, archived here as an audio podcast.

We start by covering the latest on how to pay for roads without a gas tax, as well as how to make cars unnecessary, and the growing popularity of e-bikes.

Fun facts: Based on a recent study of single men and women, even though they spend about the same amount of money, men’s avg spending habits create 16% more carbon emissions than the avg woman’s, due to more cars and trucks and alcohol and tobacco, and more meat eating. Men’s avg meat-heavy diets create 40% more emissions than the avg woman’s diet.
