Wildflowers are thriving where other plants can't – cities.
"Arable land is heavily managed, and everything that's not a crop is taken out"

What if we designed cities, and the land-uses, densities, services and infrastructure that make them what they are, so that daily activity and exercise was just an ordinary, “invisible” part of every day life? It’s actually not that hard. We just have to change our priorities. #HealthyCities

What if we designed our cities, and the land-uses, densities & infrastructure that make them what they are, so that daily activity and exercise was just a normal, ordinary, almost “invisible” part of every day life? It’s actually not that hard. We just have to change our priorities. #HealthyCities

Automobile dependency is killing the livability of our cities. There is no long term solution to traffic besides creating viable alternatives to driving.
Stop expanding highways. Start installing public transit and bikeways.

A fabulous piece in The Conversation @TheConversationUK by my UCL colleague Haim Yacobi arguing that healthy cities need better public spaces rather than less boring buildings thus also debunking the recent manifesto by British designer Thomas Heatherwick who claimed that boring buildings were at the heart of the problem of contemporary architecture and cities

At UC Davis, the campus is full of inaccessible cycle racks. Despite being made aware of this numerous times, UC Davis TAPS doubles down on ordering the same rack design for new buildings.

Addressing sedentarism without addressing ableism severely limits who can have fun and maintain good health.
Too few folks in #Urbanism
join disabled people in fighting for this equity.#HealthyCities #UCAccessNow #Ableism
