Community for those focused on sustainable travel. Our society's current levels of energy intensive and frequent travel are not compatible with life on a finite planet. We advocate for long-term slow travel to see the world, and low energy local travel to deeply experience your community. Green washing free zone.

The communities listed above are decentralized. Centralized instances are omitted as they go against the fedi purpose and it’s better to cultivate digital rights in the free world. That means instances that have a disproportionately large population or are centralized on Cloudflare are not listed.

Ebikes + renewable energy is more efficient even than a human riding a traditional bike! The energy has to come from somewhere.

I'd agree escooters are more efficient. The only disadvantage is that you can at least get a little bit of exercise for all that time you're riding the ebike.
