Suburban sprawl and public transport deserts

"From the 1950s, sprawling low-density suburbs have been built on the assumption that households would own cars and that public transport was unnecessary."

“It’s really too late to do much in the short term, because we’ve spent 70 years planning in the other direction...The hole has been dug.”

“If we’re interested in equity and justice in our cities, then we need to be providing people, no matter where they live, with a good quality level of public transport access that allows them to get jobs, services and education that are available to people in inner-city areas." >>

GLP-1 vs bariatric endoscopy — no clear winner.

Meta-analysis (Obesity Surgery, Apr 2026): similar short-term weight loss, BMI reduction, and glycemic control.
Difference lies in safety:
GLP-1 → GI side effects
Endoscopy → procedural/device risks

Treatment should be individualized. Long-term data needed.
