Nieuw onderzoek: hittegolven worden heter, langer en frequenter hoe langer we klimaatactie uitstellen.
En zelfs bij ‘net zero’ blijft de schade eeuwenlang hangen.
De politiek blijft investeren in een leefbare wereld nog steeds uitstellen. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Zweverig of zeldzaam is het niet, awe, wel intens of zelfs ontroerend. Wie dit gevoel van overrompeling door de natuur kent, is eerder geneigd haar te beschermen. ‘We moeten dus als de sodeju die verbondenheid herstellen.’ buff.ly/8VK3Nvo

According to the City of Paris, in the last 10 years 150K trees have been planted & 45ha of parks created in the already hot city, all intended to not only improve quality-of-life today, but also help the city adapt to & manage summer heatwaves of 50℃ (122F) by 2050.

Just the start.

Common sense.

Stop met kibbelen en durf te dromen over de toekomst van Nederland.

Why would you take away a parking place?’: the city where anyone can build an urban oasis! “The grätzloase – a place where friends can meet for the sake of meeting – is showing that things can be different.”

“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.

Common sense.

Such a no-brainer, it’s remarkable that more cities HAVEN’T done the same.
Paris said au revoir to cars. Air pollution maps reveal a dramatic change.

In the U.S., some parents habitually tamp down on wild, free play—which could be holding children back. But “providing kids with more freedom doesn’t require a lot of money,” Henry Abbott writes. “Mostly, it just requires a little creativity.”

What makes you choose one path over another?

What extra layers of path information would help people go further or enjoy themselves more?

Which local and national organisations would you trust to create routes that matched your interests and needs?
