I can dream of a world where all buildings are covered in foliage, right?

Follow them now!!!

Let folks in #Shoreline know their voices are needed, too!

Bezuidenhout, a neighborhood in The Hague, has received the city's first bicycle/tree platform! With only five cars shared among 45 households, there's more room in the street for bikes and greenery. 🚲🌳 #LiveableCities #GreenCities #BikeFriendly #HealthyCities

Over half of the world’s population now lives in cities.

With that number expected to rise to 68% by 2050, urbanisation is one of the world’s most transformative trends.

Sustainability through innovation can green our cities & improve all our lives.

🌳🌲When we plant the right trees in the right places, we support a cooler, greener & healthier future.

🌆 As populations grow in cities, urban trees provide many environmental & social benefits, including mitigating #ClimateChange & increasing #biodiversity.

Cidades mais verdes
Miúdos e graúdos, todos podem contribuir para cidades mais verdes e sustentáveis!

A cityscape awash in asphalt,
The buildings lined up like deer in the grass.
Time to reexamine the norm,
Time to rethink our parking needs.

Open roads free of large parking lots,
A greener vision that can't be forgot.
For developers, a small reprieve,
Space for nature to breath and heave.

A little news clip about one of the volunteer programs I participate in! (I’m not in this video, but I did help plant at this event.)

#TreeNewMexico plants 100 trees in Albuquerque neighborhoods eight times per year as part of the city’s goal to plant 100k new trees by 2030.

I am so excited that our amazing international team* was awarded a grant to pilot a method for studying associations between walking environments and people's experiences. Specifically, we will be comparing experiences between direct routes, and routes that are greener, with less noise and pollution.

We are going to be using an innovative app - Go Jauntly - and examining inputs from pedestrians walking in Auckland, Bristol, and Buenos Aires (San Martin). The funder is the Volvo Research and Education Foundation. More info in the blog post below.
