This is a street corner just a couple of blocks from my office. Can confirm how much it made walking in this area more comfortable and safer for pedestrians.
One of the most simple and powerful city-building projects your city could do would be to transform its street intersections to prioritize people and life over cars and speed. We know how. It just takes will. Graphic via the always clever @LiorSteinberg.

Demand for fuel made from animal by-products is expected to triple by 2030, with airlines leading the charge. To make matters worse, experts fear the induced scarcity will force other industries to use more palm oil - a huge generator of carbon emissions and deforestation. @BBC
Great News! "New York City Council passed a bill on Thursday requiring New Yorkers to separate their food waste from regular trash, with 1 mandatory composting coming to all five boroughs by next year."@nytimes
We love to see other cities following LA's newest composting effort.

It's time to hold these fossil fuel corporations and chemical companies accountable for their plastic pollution. Visit the link below and make 2 simple phone calls to @CarlHeastie and @AndreaSCousins to demand they pass The Packaging Reduction & Recycling Act, which would cut all packaging waste by 50% and remove toxic chemicals including PFAS. We need to ensure that our New York State legislative leaders pass this critical bill before June 9!
