    IMO, the graph from the actual report shows better data without concerns over cherry picking.

    Why exclude Mexico from North America? No data, or the did the data make the narrative not hit so hard?

    Edit: also, fuck Africa apparently.

      It also seems weird to not weight the world average by population. That would make the final numbers very different.

      Mexico is closer to South America than North America in many measures including care reliance. It does make sense to exclude or isolate outliers.

      Though that doesn’t answer for why Oceania isn’t in the chart at all.

          well yes but Aus is also in Oceania and that’s pretty hard to overlooked on any globe.

    I always kind of thought the yanks all used the subway growing up because every film was set in NYC.

    I cycle to work, had people tell me they need their car for commuting yet they live and work in the same town.

    Cars make you lazy.

      Everyone who works less than me is lazy. Everyone who works more is crazy.

      You could very easily cycle for your commute til the day you die in my area, because you’d probably die within a couple of weeks.

      My work is sadly 40+ miles away. I do bike to shop unless I’m buying stuff too big for my bike.

        Sure, but these people live and work in the same town. Some only a few hundred metres away.

      Cars make you lazy.

      When I was commuting, I was doing it in a vehicle full of tools and spare parts.

      Does that make me lazy?
