Or people need to give up the idea of taking three tons of metal to work with them every day.

Happy too just as soon as work locate themselves somewhere that's actually accessible via public transport. And not in some out of town business park with only road access and no cycling facilities.

Also they need to change the weather so it never rains or snows and is always warm but not too warm.

If they start doing those things then we can talk.

I love when people say stuff like this. It's the "I'm not even going to try" comment. If children in Finland can bike to school in the winter, I think your adult self can deal with a little bit of not-ideal weather sometimes. You just have to dress for it, and not expect to always be isolated from the environment like some people want to be for some reason.

yeah most weather you can easily deal with by dressing appropriately and accepting that you're not going to be 100% comfortable all the time, especially when the distances aren't too long. That said, I did have to endure some horrid weather as a kid on my bike to school that I'm not sure I'd want to put someone else through
