“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.

Under the Trump administration, America is retreating from hard power, surrendering soft power, and yielding economic power, David A. Graham writes in The Atlantic Daily. Is this what greatness looks like?
