According to the City of Paris, in the last 10 years 150,000 trees have been planted and 45 hectares of parks created in the city, all intended to not only improve quality-of-life today, but also help the city adapt to and manage summer heatwaves of 50℃ (122F) by 2050. Plant a lot more urban trees.

ULEZ works. It’s that simple. Expanding the Ultra Low Emission Zone wasn’t a decision I took lightly, but the latest figures show that it was the right one for the health of millions of Londoners.

To see the contempt with which scientists in the US are being treated by the new administration is so fucking galling. These are people who've often foregone much more lucrative opportunities to devote themselves to advancing knowledge - for everyone.

Did a car write this?? Talks about action needed for a healthier and more sustainable society but doesn't mention sustainable mobility at all, no reference to active travel or public transport as far as I can see, and instead asks for support for 700,000 new EVs.

Interesting that the @ccacireland.bsky.social are suggesting we spend approx. €4bn on electric cars.... while these vehicles are part of the solution, cars cause congestion and it is estimated it will cost the state €2bn by 2030....
