If you think the interlinked food, cost of living and migration crises are bad now.. you ain't seen nothin' yet. But you soon will. #ClimateEmergency #COP28 #COP28UAE #Defence #Planning https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/aug/12/global-heating-likely-to-hit-world-food-supply-faster-than-expected-says-united-nations-desertification-expert

In your country are there laws governing ODZ (Outside Development Zones). These zones are areas on which development is prohibited.

Are they routinely broken?

A #BRT line will open along Denver’s Colfax Ave three years from now. To their credit, some city council members are focusing now on how #transit will change this wide, unlovely road. What will people on foot need that’s different from people in cars? Drive-throughs? No. Storage units? Probably not. In the end, the city may find that setting a few rules is the best it can do. The rest will be up to property managers and the business owners. https://denverite.com/2023/07/18/colfax-rezoning-bus-rapid-transit-line-denver-city-council/ #planning

It's all about #planning...

Our institute has developed a tool for towns in #CT to view their #climate vulnerabilities. It’s hugely valuable. But, still hard to get buy in. One of my colleagues had a call two days ago with a town official who said “We have never had #flooding issues. It’s not a problem here.”

They had 4” of rain yesterday and had to evacuate a housing complex. We are here to help you understand the future is going to require a different way of thinking.

My 4th of July reading… “Paved Paradise” by Henry Grabar #parking #PavedParadise #planning #UrbanDesign #reading #book #library

A person on a bicycle crashed into this fire hydrant yesterday and had to be evacuated by helicopter to a hospital. Since the hydrant isn’t going anywhere, how would you fix this to make it safer? #CrappyBikeLanes #BikeLanes #BikeTooter #planning #TacticalUrbanism #UrbanDesign #Bicycle #cycling #SafeStreets

Armchair street designer at work… trying to make this little intersection a bit more comfy for biking and walking. #BikeTooter #Provincetown #BikeLane #Sidewalk #urbanplanning #planning #CompleteStreets

How would you make this plan for #Provincetown more comfortable for riding a #bike? It’s better than what we have today, but it’s still mostly just paint. We have a 25% design hearing coming up next week… #BikeTooter #planning #RoadDiet

I never managed that domestic thing.

If we (#EU🇪🇺) cannot humanely manage small numbers of refugees now, how will we cope later this century when hundreds of millions of #climate #refugees are displaced and forced to migrate poleward into and through Europe?

We need well-planned governance institutions and humane management agencies to deliver secure migration and distributed resettlement throughout #Europe. #Planning and #security must begin now! https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/nov/30/european-politicians-accused-of-conspiring-with-libyan-coastguard-to-push-back-refugees

#Climate is changing faster than our #planning policies, and our homes can't wait

After witnessing the wreckage of once-in-a-lifetime flood events that killed hundreds in Europe this year, Minister Patrick O'Donovan came away with one thought; could it happen here? #ClimateChange #Ireland https://www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/commentanalysis/arid-41016836.html

Today, Prof Chris Whitty, Chief Medical Officer of England, spoke at the TCPA annual conference about #place and #health. 'If you look at a map of child mortality in the 1850s, and mortality during Covid, they are almost the same. This suggests we have failed to understand the drivers of ill-health and tackle them,' he said. #PublicHealth #Planning #Placemaking
