Watching the news tonight, 2 more mass shootings in the United States being reported on. 338 mass shootings in the US already this year, about half way in. 21,497 deaths from gun violence, or 115 average per day in 2023 already, according to @CTVNews. That is beyond insane. #guns #GunControl #GunReform
Another reminder that urban density & lush street trees creating a “Kissing Canopy” over the sidewalk and street are completely compatible. It’s actually PART of #DensityDoneWell. You just have to make it a actual design priority. As this very dense block in my downtown #Vancouver neighbourhood illustrates. #trees #StreetTrees #downtown #cities
“I support safe biking not because I’m a person who rides a bike, but because I’m someone who understands how important it is for cities to function better.” My comments to @SactownMagazine in #Sacramento on e-bikes, safe bike infrastructure, and more. #bikes #cities #EBikes #urbanism
