Walmart replicated this at massive scale. “And so what the big-box discount department store effectively did was consolidate and transpose almost every classic #MainStreet enterprise—clothing, toys, crafts, decor, electronics, hardware and groceries —and place them all under one roof, under one corporate enterprise, in a massive, car-oriented property on the edge of town"...the desirability of #commerce in a #walkable setting transcends political lines.

The only way to avoid crossing these #tippingpoints is to stop #heating up the #planet. And comprehensive #Earth system models show that if we stop adding #carbonpollution, the warming of Earth’s surface stops soon thereafter.
So that brings us back to where we started. Yes, we have failed to prevent dangerous #climatechange. It is here. What remains to be seen is just how bad we’re willing to let it get- Michael Mann

In the year after the excavation, the density of active swimming animals, such as fish and shrimp, dropped by 43% in areas directly affected by sediment kicked up by mining, and by 56% in adjacent areas. The results show that effects are felt beyond the mining areas “by a pretty substantial amount”.

#PricePollution: Wear and tear on #tires and #brakes produce more #particlepollution, by mass, than #car #exhaustsystems... fine #particles (known as PM 2.5, with diameters up to 2.5 microns) and #ultrafine particles (known as PM 0.1, with diameters of 100 nanometers), which can enter through our #bloodstream and harm our #organs.

The ‘bicibús,’ is considered a highly replicable model that makes getting to school fun, safe and sustainable.
Love this so much.

#WalkableCites #PublicHealth recipe to build #immunity and wards of #ChronicDisease: #Walk a little faster than you normally do. Your breathing and heart rate should increase, but you should be able to talk comfortably. For 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. Break it up into any schedule that works for you. #FifteenMinuteCity #CarFreeCityCentersPlease
