, just some random thoughts my dog and I had as we walked along

As a parent I've planned for my children's childhood. But reality check. What is next?

A longer episode. i share why I'm convinced you're next car should be an EV.

I reflect on seeing a lot more delivery drivers on my street with Amazon going more popular and with covid encouraging people to stay out of stores. Maybe this is not a bad idea after all. It certainly is not a new idea.

Experiencing our town's historic downtown can be an exposure to excessive vehicle noise and exhaust. I attempt to demonstrate how this detracts from a livable walkable down town.

I reflect on my experience with small gas engines both professionally and as a homeowner and I recognize that they take a lot of care a lot of fun in a lot of inconvenience and then they perform really well. With climate change present with us today as a global crisis I'm rethinking whether or not I'll ever buy another small gas engine

I did something really surprising last week and I didn't even notice myself doing it listen to find out what I did to learn from my mistake

The Wildfire smoke has arrived in my neighbourhood and suddenly the news story becomes real. In the same way I think climate change is far too subtle for most people to truly register the scale of the crisis we're in.

I explore how I'm trying to become more intentional in using the best words I can instead of speaking in archaic terms. And I tie this in with how I'm learning the new rules of writing where gender is mentioned when gender is necessary but gender is not assumed to always be masculine. I'm very happy to honour and respect people and to become wiser in the way that I express myself and I acknowledge I am on a journey of getting better at this. So I start by sharing how much it bugs me when church people use English from 1511 interspersed with Modern English and their religious practice as if somehow that is more holy or something but you could just listen to the podcast to get off thanks for listening

I consider an example where a lack of recycling infrastructure makes it hard for people to "do the right thing"
