[BoulderCouncilHotline] E-Scooter Article

[Carlisle, Cynthia]

Good morning,

The article linked below, published earlier this month, looks at some of the unseen carbon costs involved in this new micromobility option and makes the case that they are not as good for the environment as people originally thought. The article cites information from a new study<https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/ab2da8> published this month in the IOPScience Journal.
