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.

City air makes one free. It also gives you asthma and lung cancer. Cars or bikes, family or industry: who does the city belong to? We talk greening cities on Standard Time.

The hustle of engines and the screeching of brakes are noises characterizing #citylife. In addition to the sound pollution they cause, we can’t ignore their consequences on the #air that we #breathe either. We talk #greenurbanism on the latest episode of #StandardTime.

Welcome! You are invited to join a meeting: Addressing Climate Change and Housing Crises Together. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the meeting.

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.
