ICYMI: This one’s been getting a LOT of attention/discussion — my interview with @npub1jtry...eyqs on many podcast platforms & YouTube! We cover a LOT of really important ground that’s resonating with city-lovers and professionals alike on how to ACTUALLY ACHIEVE BETTER CITIES IN REAL PRACTICE! How to see urban challenges and change differently, change the public conversation, be more persuasive with decision-makers, engage media differently, and much more!

As I discussed in my interview with @npub1jtry...eyqs (below), these are the 5 STEPS TO MAKING BETTER CITIES I’ve been using for many years, and eventually wrote about in @npub17eyh...f2eu. Too many cities are stuck in Step 2 (doing the wrong things better), and have to really be careful in Step 4 (doing the right things badly).

I’m learning more about the podcast universe through being interviewed by #NotJustBikes. If podcasts are easier for you, it’s on many, with Apple and Spotify having almost 10K listens already. Or you can do YouTube below, which is around 3.5K.

“Electric cars are no more dangerous for pedestrians than petrol and diesel models, researchers find.”
They’re also no safer. Which reminds us that “better cars” aren’t the main answer to the consequences of cars. The main answer is fewer (and smaller) cars driven less frequently in better cities.
EVs 'just as safe for pedestrians' | University of Leeds
Electric vehicles (EVs) are no more dangerous to pedestrians than traditional petrol or diesel cars, according to a new study.
