Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #livable, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Found this cool-sounding initiative to make a major #Indian city more #representative, #safer, #livable, etc, through a public engagement platform.

    But the manifesto, platform, social media, etc, are all just in one language - #English.

    So...who does this really represent?

  3. Tony connecting the future with the past. He has been farming for 50 years using #regenerative farming practices. As a society we need to develop an ecological/regenerative #agriculture around and within our urban centres where food is grown with a minimum of energy inputs and a maximum of ecological design. We need to redesign our cities to be #walkable, #bikeable, #breathable and #livable . Where most of the energy to make the city function comes from the food we eat. #NDP #cdnpoli #organic

  5. But, @fortune @news-fortune, some of us #younger #Baby #Boomers who don’t have #high #incomes — because few people are paid #livable incomes anymore — haven’t yet paid off our #mortgages. We’re desperately hoping we can afford to keep living in our homes.

  8. For a #sustainable and #peaceful world, we will have to reinvent our #civilization: the #economy, #democracy, the rules governing #media communication...
    We will only succeed if we fundamentally #rethink our approach. This rethinking must begin with our goals: we must question the existing #goals of our civilization and find new, more #livable ones.

  9. Do dense cities mean more #heat? Not necessarily. ETH Zurich researcher Prof. Jan Carmeliet shows that smart #densification + strategic greening can make #urban areas more #livable — and #cooler. A new blog post explores how thoughtful planning can reduce heat stress in cities. Read more:

  15. #ClimateChange is real, and #COP28 did seem on the face of it to make some steps toward phasing out fossil fuels.

    But is it enough? Or is it just more #greenwashing as governments like the #UKPOL decide that immigration is more important than a #livable, #breathable planet?

  17. Of course, if my furnaces today used that design, I wouldn't be #ranting.

    I have two #furnaces - at the time this home was built, it was the style here to put in two furnaces, one for the upstairs, and one for the main floor and basement. Kind of like a really #janky #zone system. I replaced both of them when I bought this #house.

    Well, last #winter, the blower motor in one #died. It's kind of nice having two; the house was #chilly but #livable while I was getting it #fixed.

  22. a poll and question to my #parisian friends and followers: i see many toots here from #germans idolizing anne #hidalgo #mayor of #paris, how great a job she does with kicking out #cars from the city, making #green streets, and making paris much more #livable. a few weeks ago i spoke with a friend who has a strong paris connection and said, it's #bullshit, everyone hates anne, and she will not be reelected. so here's a #poll for you, and please also comment in replies on this. merci!

  23. #Warsaw is changing towards a more #livable city. Marszałkowska Street - will have fewer car lanes, more trees, more separated #bike paths and wider footpaths.
    I love it.

  25. When I found out that 94% of Parisians lived within a five-minute walk of a place that baked bread, I had to check how close my home (and home office) were to one. I was pleased by the answer.

    We all want a #livable #city, but if we’re going to make a livable city worth #living in, we are going to need more #solidarity, not less.
