“One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.” “Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath Some costs are savings.

It's difficult for words to convey just how disappointing this NSW Govt decision really is. Apparently, some kinds of hate deserve criminal punishment, while others don't. And the main difference seems to be whether faith groups are doing the hating. #nswpol #auslaw www.smh.com.au/politics/nsw...
