A little something for #ThrowbackThursday from a little free time I had in Norway when I was there for work over 20 years ago. What a beautiful country! These are scenes in and around Bergen. I was there in early July, so it was quite a treat to be walking around in daylight so late in the evening. I remember the people there being very friendly and welcoming.

Scene of a waterway from the top of a hill. The light is reflecting obliquely off the water, making it shine. The sky is heavily clouded over the top of the scene, with some lighter sky near the horizon. The water is surrounded by various hills, and the land in the foreground is in deep shadow.
A man stands along the side of a hiking trail. Behind him is a river and behind the river is a rocky hill. He is flanked by tall evergreen trees.
A scene of a city park in Bergen. A circular structure and a park bench are in the foreground. Behind the sculpture is a bandstand, and behind that is an ornate brick building. Behind the building is a steep wooded hill shrouded in fog. The park has numerous cultivated shrubs and trees.
An abandoned stone and concrete house in the foreground is sunk into the side of a rocky, moss-covered hill. The house has no windows or doors or roof remaining, but does have an upright rusted iron chimney.

"Did I really think a POTA activation at #Norway 's busiest border crossing would draw no attention? Did I really think that no one would notice my five meter whip on top of the car? Yes, I actually thought so, but that didn't happen.

Nonetheless, the police were friendly and nice, and they even let me film them. And the let me keep on activating. It's all about hamming harder."

Since I've almost finished writing up posts about our time in Ålesund last year (I don't like to rush things) here's a photo of the Norwegian town as we were leaving it. We had some gorgeous weather which really brought out the best of the location.

#Ålesund #Norway #Travel #Photography #TravelPhotography #TravelTuesday #Cruise

It's a beautiful, bright, warm-feeling, cloudless day. From the bottom of our elevated view upwards we can see deep blue water, faintly rippled, which meets a long concrete pier running across the width of the picture. It looks long enough to dock two large ships next to one another and we're clearly on one just departing. A few small buildings and a line of flagpoles run along the middle of the pier. Beyond is a trapezoidal-shaped harbour of similarly flat, blue water, but this reflects some of the buildings on its far side, most of which are commercial structures of no more than half a dozen storeys in height, with one larger office block in the middle. A pink, square building stands out to the right, reflected brightly on the water's surface. Behind the buildings there is more open water towards the horizon, broken up by islands, each of which has one larger hill or mountainous mass dominating it. A similar hill with steep sides and a rounded top rises to the right of the buildings in the town; it's at least twice the height of the tallest building and has sheer sides of grey, craggy rock with plenty of greenery from bushes and trees over it, and a wide, low building on its peak that looks to provide spectacular views over the town in front of it and us.

Calling all food-loving Norwegians! I would really like to know about Christmas #food traditions between Christmas and New Year, not the celebration days themselves. If you had a family/friends party at that time would it be more likely to be in the form of a sit down dinner or more like a help yourself hot/cold buffet table? Thanks lots in advance!

The Iron Curtain is descending over Russia

#Estonia and #Norway do not rule out closing border crossings on the Russian border, following #Finland.

If this happens, #Russia will be practically cut off from the #EU (except for the border in the #Kaliningrad region).

Lux Express, a major Baltic car carrier, suspends bus transportation on the Helsinki - St. Petersburg route for an indefinite period of time. Earlier, Ecolines announced same decision.

Probably only relevant for folks in #Norway, but if you have some kroners left despite this economy, Måkevakta would really appreciate your support for vet expenses.

I’ve been helping out with taking care of the birds the past months, and yesterday I caught gull Victoria, who we suspect was shot by someone and had to go to the vet today for x-rays 🤒

Young herring gull Victoria in my arms, wrapped in a towel like a burrito. She’s biting the towel and looking a bit distressed. She has a black beak with pink inside, her feathers are white with gray and brown spots, darker around the eyes.

@CelloMomOnCars

Really interesting article, thank you for sharing! World is complex and every solution has negative consequences.

#EV subsidies in #Norway reduced tailpipe emissions, but they also entrenched car dependence, undermining cities' ability to build walkable neighborhoods and improving public transport. They also increased #inequality as the subsidies do not benefit those that cannot afford a car at all.

US Congress repeated the mistake in their #InflationReductionAct. 😞

The other myth: that EVs solve everything.

"As the world’s #EV trendsetter, #Norway’s experience offers a bevy of lessons for other nations seeking to decarbonize transportation. But some of those lessons are cautionary."

“Everyone agrees that 100 percent of cars should be electric. That’s not the question,” Tiina Ruohonen, a climate advisor to the mayor of Oslo, told me. “The real question is whether you really need to own a car in Oslo.”

#Electrification of #transport is important, but we should not forget that #EVs still use far more #energy than public transport, biking, or pedestrians.

It is essential to combine different modes of transport in an equitable way, while keeping in mind that cities & rural areas, the poor & the rich, and different countries have different needs. According to Vox, #Norway is an example of both what to do and what not to do. #Inclusive #EnergyTransition #GlobalHeating

In Vox, I explained why Norway’s “EV miracle” is a cautionary tale.

Eye-popping incentives have spurred electric car sales -- but they've also widened inequality and undermined transit/biking.

Excessive EV promotions create their own problems.
