We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.

Biodiversity is collapsing - and we are the losers.
Only through bold #ClimateAction and strong, credible commitments from all countries can we end this crisis.
The future of humanity depends on everyone’s efforts.

The thought of us giving up on the 1.5 or well below 2°C-targets of the Paris Agreement - without people even knowing what the full consequences of that would mean to future generations and to the most affected people and areas - is simply unacceptable. #mapa #climatejustice 1/3

Our founding promise has never been guaranteed. Each generation has been called to bring us a little closer to our highest ideals—and history’s calling on us right now. So let’s all do whatever we can to help @JoeBiden expand that promise to all Americans.
Our nation was founded on a simple idea: We're all created equal. We've never lived up to it — but we've never stopped trying. This Independence Day, let's not just celebrate those words, let's commit to finally fulfill them. Happy #FourthOfJuly!

Oh I love this. Keep watching the traffic - because suddenly everything changes. There are many ways to live a city.
2012 vs 2020 What a transformation. Highlighting the inefficiency of the automobile as means of transporting people. @Anne_Hidalgo 2014 vision of re-engineering the city's roads and Junctions to be less car centric has really paid off. Less pollution, congestion & more cycling
