Paris proves bold leadership transforms cities. 🌍
From suffocating smog (2007) to clean, green & livable streets (2023):
🚴♀️ 100s of km of bike lanes
🌳 Tens of thousands of trees
🚗 Car-free zones & 30 km/h limits
Millions now breathe clean air.
When will we dare to follow? 💪
In May this year, @LordPeterHendy pressured my now-former employer @SYSTRA_UKIRL to sack me by threatening them.
Why did he do this? Because I'd highlighted safety and accessibility issues at Euston station. He is unfit for office and should resign.

Might be time to dig out the plans for a total rebuild of Euston into a unified HS2 and conventional station, as originally envisaged…. https://t.co/1nnP9q21Vb
The scaling back and scrapping of HS2 is one of the biggest symbols of failure in this country. But especially this - failing to have a direct connection between Manchester and Paris for want of a short tunnel in London. Brunel would’ve constructed this in a weekend as a side gig
I've just seen among all the other bad news for the arts in Birmingham that the council is closing 25 out of 36 libraries - genuine cultural vandalism. Libraries are one of the few community resources left in the UK: they offer incalculable support and value.
So get this: the world's coral reefs disappear at 1.5C. We are past 1.5C now and heading for 2C
THEY ARE DONE.
The point is not "OMG all those lovely colourful things we see on David Attenborough are going to go"
No
The point is 25% of the world's fish will disappear as well.…
can't get a doctor or dentist appt and bins are left rotting and the roads are destroyed and you can't afford childcare or food or heating and there's no funding for the arts or mental health but we are about to go to fucking war in Yemen to ensure Israel can continue a genocide

I'll take a stab and say that letting them rot and eventually having to demolish them would be a bit more depressing.
Adaptive reuse of these types of spaces is great. Especially with another third place like a coffee shop.
2023 was the warmest year on record globally by a large margin. Another dark red stripe gets added, though I think I need a new colour.

We still have an ozone layer because we phased OUT (rather than phase DOWN) CFCs.
We still hear birdsong in spring because we phased OUT (rather than phase DOWN) DDT.
A livable climate requires that we phase OUT rather than phase DOWN fossil fuels.
