About this listen

 In this episode, we sit down with two Bay Area bicycle advocates to discuss how to make cycling and walking part of our everyday lives. We learn how our guests have made that shift, in part, to curb their contributions to the climate crisis. And they share information about how a number of cities are creating infrastructure to make it easier to get around by biking and walking.Guests and Titles: Emma-Louise Anderson, Executive Director, The Seed FundTim Oey, owner, Bicycle Solutions and founder of ZeroW.org Great Guest Quote: “I switched out of high tech to dedicate myself to helping others get to the point of being able to bike more. “ – Tim Oey, owner, Bicycle Solutions and founder of ZeroW.org Keywords: #bicycling, #cycling, #climateride, #saferoutes, #calbikes, #sfbike, #climateaction,#climatecrisis, #parisHost: Ellisa FeinsteinTranscript here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cgiFA0BnZF-qfOlZEF7A_uwX_IlIhXoZQkT-z5gdlzU/edit?usp=sharingThis episode’s recap blog post: coming soonDid you know?
