I editorialised the title as the original was clickbait, but the video itself is quite good. Interestingly, e-bikes are claimed to have lower emissions than acoustic bikes, although it likely depends on diet (the author didn’t specifically compare a vegan diet between the two types but did indicate that vegan + electric is the most carbon efficient form).
Reading through some sites, 0.5kcal/h seems to be average that when biking leisurely on a normal bike.
700cal/h would mean that you could cycle for 300h with 500ml of coca cola.
USA uses cal and kcal interchangeably because being confusing with units is our specialty. Guess I should say “Cal” instead of “cal”, but no one but chemists care about the difference here. My mistr.
