A few years ago, I posted what I still consider one of my most important messages.
It was about “The Populist Playbook” that I’ve watched play out often over my 33+ years of city planning.
Since then, it’s only gotten worse.
Do the steps sound familiar?

“One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.”
“Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath
Some costs aren’t costs.

Copenhagen, the bicycle-friendliest place on the planet, publishes a biannual Bicycle Account, and buried in its pages is a rather astonishing fact.

“Air pollution fell substantially as [Paris]
restricted car traffic and made way for parks, people-streets and bike-lanes.”
Better for the climate, better for health, better for livability & quality of life.
Such an obvious no-brainer, it’s remarkable that so many cities HAVEN’T done the same.

Paris said au revoir to cars. Air pollution maps reveal a dramatic change.

Don’t forget Valencia, Spain.
Don’t forget those who insisted that actions needed to avoid the #ClimateCrisis were “too expensive.”
Don’t forget all the record-breaking, historic or “100 year” events we’ve seen lately.
They’re not the “new normal.
It’s going to keep getting exponentially worse.
