  • I’m sure there’s lots of good stuff under each of the headings, but these seem incredibly anodyne:

    The key pillars of advice in the Best Practices Guide are:

    1. To make a clear commitment from the organization;
    2. Break down silos;
    3. Make decisions based on up-to-date information;
    4. Procure vehicles and equipment that align with operational needs and develop a phased, data-driven plan for future vehicle replacements; and
    5. Plan for long-term success






  • Thirty-ish years ago, my grandfather said he felt sorry for me because of the state of the world.

    Human nature is to say things are going to shit, everything is terrible, and things were better in some non-existent past.

    Yeah, things suck now. But they also sucked thirty years ago and 100 years ago. The difference is that we know the outcome to (some) of the problems people faced then. And (generally) the worst case scenario didn’t happen.

    Yeah, we need to fight the rich on climate change. But we will. And we’ll mitigate the problems we can. And we’ll tell our grandkids that we don’t envy their future.
