Exploring urban freedom vs. health risks on 'Standard Time'.
Pollution's toll in numbers is stark: 238,000 premature deaths.
Yet, the vision for greener, more inclusive cities is clear: with Green Urbanism, we reclaim our cities for the better.
#Portland #Housing and #Climate forum next Monday Oct 30th at 7pm by #350pdx's metro #ClimateAction team (MCAT) discuss #ORpol legislative solutions to increase housing within the #UrbanGrowthBoundary and protect us from sprawl, improve walkability, tree canopy, #GreenUrbanism, etc. (hint: if you want good #transit, make space for #eBikes)

We need to address climate change and the housing crises at the same time! Our land-use laws protect agricultural and forest land and encourage new housing development in places already connected to public transportation, utilities and access to goods and services. This forum will cover proposed legislation on barriers to new housing development within our urban growth boundaries. We wish to improve legislative solutions in the upcoming session. Join speakers Bob Sallinger, Willamette Riverkeepers, Mary Kyle McCurdy, 1000 Friends of OR and Ariel Nelson, League of Oregon Cities.
I read the city of Merida in Mexico is running an ie tram which appears to be an electric bus with a tram aesthetic, the buses look beautiful, but I would like to know if they offer any benefit other than looking like a tram.

I can dream of a world where all buildings are covered in foliage, right?
To introduced myself here I'm going to post a few old things I've written, starting with something on Vitoria-Gasteiz, in Spain.
