Investing in a healthy planet isn’t just good for nature—it’s a massive economic opportunity.
New #GEO7 report shows that transforming energy, food, waste & finance systems can unlock US$20 trillion a year by 2070, save millions of lives, & lift millions out of poverty.

Toronto residents mobilized yesterday to depute for a strong climate action plan that could lower costs, improve transportation, create jobs and save lives. It was inspiring to be in the room.
If we want a livable city we need council to pass a stronger TranformTO now !

We have no shortage of solutions when it comes to the #ClimateCrisis & better city-building. We know what works, & what doesn’t. We know the difference between action & excuse. We have smart cities that inspire us.
