Technology will not set us free: ride-hailing trips result in an estimated 70% more climate pollution on average than the trips they displace. We need to revert to timeless principles of urbanism: designing our cities for walking, cycling and transit. https://t.co/QI33pgQIe3

#Ridehailing needs to be made electric and pooled immediately, and it should guide people onto bikes first, since most trips are short.

The tech is ready and state/local regulators can make it be.

Another day, another study on rideshare.

This one says these trips result in 70% more climate pollution on average than the trips they displace.
That’s why I’m glad to see the House revenue bill propose raising fees on rideshare- the least we can do. https://t.co/4Ed43ebKFl
@CircellaG, Farzad Alemi, and @alanjenn were recently cited in @UCSUSA's new report, "Ride-Hailing's Climate Risks." Surveys performed by our researchers were used to examine whether ride-hail users would have taken mass transit instead. #mobilityhttps://t.co/TrHEMBS50O

Uber-like services are convenient and competitive for people who don't own a car BUT increase climate emissions.

New study shows @Uber trips in the US today result in 69% more climate pollution (CO2) on average than the trips they displace #TrueCostOfUberhttps://t.co/2oEKSVeaZg

We're moving in the wrong direction, folks. "Ride-hailing trips today result in an estimated 69 percent more climate pollution on average than the trips they displace." https://t.co/cXh8uJ0BcP

Not really news but: @Uber and @lyft generate 70% more pollution than trips they displacehttps://t.co/oTBs54y0Mx

Rather than simply replacing other cars, Ubers and Lyfts are increasing the total number of car trips, and our collective carbon footprint, causing an estimated 69 percent more emissions than the trips they displace. https://t.co/25YB2fUGmv
