Kicking off #urbantransitions2022 🌇

Keynotes by H Taubenbock and J Woodcock paint a picture of urban change in the age of anthropocene.

Underlying message: our impact on the planet is too drastic, and the direction is not as should.

More carrots & stick needed, urgently 🌍

We need to move from a car-centric to an integrated system to achieve net zero. Prof. Woodcock at #urbantransitions2022
Are we ready? @martinfleis @darribas :) #urbantransitions2022
Might have found the coziest train station café ever! Stopover in Nîmes on my way to the #UrbanTransitions2022 conference in Sitges. 11 hours by train from Zürich - longing for the Zürich-Barcelona night train to make its comeback (it will!).
Anyone else in Sitges this week?
