I posted it twice. And I will go line by line: Corporate action in 10 years by a company that encourages the disuse of public transport. News cycle: Uber/Lyft volume is very low. Get in the news and get folks to start using Lyft as restrictions end. "we are good, we are saving the climate" What's the meaning? Is it binding? Is it legal? Or is it just words that they can walk back at any moment for any reason or just forget the made this claim. It's not name calling; I'm pointing out this is fluff and pretty much does not mean anything. Thanks for your input and vote.

> Corporate action in 10 years by a company that encourages the disuse of public transport. I don't understand your point here. Lyft also discourages car ownership. What should any of this matter? Why does it matter what their customers incentives might be when discussing their corporate climate action? Are you stating that lyft is bad for the environment and climate change overall, and would still be bad after this change? I just don't get how these things are related. > News cycle: Uber/Lyft volume is very low. Get in the news and get folks to start using Lyft as restrictions end. "we are good, we are saving the climate" People are just desperate to get out and do things. I don't think that lyft making headlines online or on TV is going to matter much for that and I don't think their marketing department would think so either. This sounds like a conspiracy theory that Lyft does not operate in good faith and is rather trying to trick everyone all the time. It just seems unfounded and weird. > What's the meaning? Is it binding? Is it legal? Or is it just words that they can walk back at any moment for any reason or just forget the made this claim. I'm sure it is binding. If they do not make strong efforts towards meeting these goals, surely the shareholders would sue? I would! > It's not name calling; I'm pointing out this is fluff and pretty much does not mean anything. "big fat nothingburger" is the definition of name calling and rude behavior. It just doesn't belong here. You also didn't address that there is literally 0 excitement here. There are 0 comments that I would rank as any level of "excited". I don't want to accuse you of lying, but, can you source what you mean by "excitement here"? It just doesn't seem real to me.
