Meanwhile, in Oceania...
 
Right. Because it's the "big antivax" that gave us lockdowns. "Big antivax" that made us wear masks. "Big antivax" that took out ads on TV and on radio. "Big antivax" that bought out celebrities and media personalities to push their agenda. "Big antivax" that made billions of dollars in profit selling their antivax doses. RIGHT???

This is from Google maps photo from ten months ago but I still see pedestrians like this in Vancouver and Surrey, and the occasional solo mask driver.
A really weird one was yesterday at the swimming pool, a lady gets in with a pool floatie noodle, wearing a mask on the face and kept it on as she floated around. I never saw if she got her head in the water at all.

How white and affluent drivers are polluting the air breathed by L.A.’s people of color

In Los Angeles, the less you drive, the more you're exposed to toxic fumes, according to a new study.

Still can't post pictures at this time but lol that headline. And other digs in that article

Overall, though, the map shows how residents of whiter, wealthier communities disproportionately drive to work through lower-income Latino and Black neighborhoods, spewing pollution. Residents of those neighborhoods can’t do much about it.


“If you want to be exposed to less pollution, you can’t be the change you want to see in the world,” Boeing said. “It’s up to everybody else who is taking advantage of public infrastructure and releasing tailpipe emissions.”

Boeing was careful to note that the study doesn’t conclusively prove that patterns in how Angelenos get to work are solely responsible for different levels of air pollution in different communities. Majority-white Westside neighborhoods, for instance, could also be benefiting from ocean breezes that push pollution into predominantly Black and Latino areas, he said.

But the researchers’ close examination of driving patterns, commute distances and pollution — which involved a combination of data analysis and modeling — painted a clear picture of environmental injustice, Boeing said. In addition to the link between air quality and miles driven, his team found that non-white communities face higher pollution levels across the board.


So what do solutions look like? Getting more people into electric cars is definitely one of them.

Season 3 of Due South, set in Chicago, was 1997 - Lori Lightfoot was a rookie attorney at that point, no such thing as Lightfoot Construction (sign looks like a brand-new prop department piece), and the only Lightfoot Construction (omg BC, maybe this scene was filmed there! Nope) was formed in 2020.

Also, the show holds up if you were curious.

I wonder how batteries will work out long term ,or repair/replacement for any bump and ding on the road, and if a lot of mineral mining for batteries gets any concern as time goes on.
