US gas prices this month are so far the highest ever recorded for August
as peace talks between the US and Iran have stalled and Donald Trump launched fresh threats against Oman.
The national average price of gas was $4.06 per gallon on Monday,
according to data from AAA,
$0.05 higher than last week
and $1 more expensive than a year ago.
In California and Hawaii, averages hit about $5.50 a gallon.

Cars are the reason SF’s tree canopy is so sparse.
This is typical. That’s gotta be, what, 200 feet without trees due to continuous driveways. And down the block the trees that are there are small, offering little shade. That’s because the sidewalk is too narrow for large, healthy, mature trees. And why’s it narrow? To fit a parking lane.
We can choose trees over cars, life over luxury transport.
