Utfartsparkeringsplassene er perfekt gråareal for aktivitetssonene med sportsanlegg som kommunen har ønsket seg langs markagrensene. Ekte urbant friluftsliv er bilfritt. Hvis en tror en trenger bil for å komme seg ut i Oslo-marka, så kan en heller bli hjemme. Vinn-vinn. www.nrk.no/stor-oslo/vi...
Vil bygge sportsanlegg i marka
For å få flere til å bruka marka, vil kommunen bygge idrettsanlegg og baner like opp til skogen. Naturvernforbundet mener det kommer til å ødelegge for vanlige turgåere.

Håper det blir evig forsinkelse i så måte. Fint med en park det går ann å bruke. Stusselig at penger skal privatisere så mye av offentlige arealer. Youngstorget, Tøyenparken, Middelalderparken. Forskjellen er Norway cup. Mye areal og bygg som er lite i bruk på det tidspunktet. Og for masse barn.

I am reminding myself in this moment that other countries are forging ahead without us, that states will make their own rules because people don't actually want massive pollution and out of control corporations poisoning land, water, air, and animals. But it's still pretty monstrous.

A small group of conservative activists has worked for 16 years to stop all government efforts to fight climate change. Their efforts seem poised to pay off.

ICE is currently holding around 80,000 detainees. Nazi Germany didn't reach this number in its formal camp system until 1942, nine years after seizing power and three years into the war.
