£770m. That’s the economic benefit international students contributed to the city of Sheffield in the 2021-2 academic year.

We’re calling on the government to recognise the economic, social and cultural value of international students and remove them from net migration figures.

@DavidWalsh_M Definitely! This is the perfect use for this space!

📣Have you heard about BuildZero?🎉 This new £6m project led by @sheffielduni will explore the extent to which the circular economy could meet the UK’s building needs using zero new material extractions, zero emissions and zero waste.

If walking costs you $1, we all pay $0.01. If biking costs you $1, we all pay $0.08. If bussing costs you $1, we all pay $1.50. If driving costs you $1, we all pay $9.20. Via @thediscourse study.

This isn’t just about choice. It’s about who pays for your choice.

Remember, Paris wasn’t “always this way.”

It wasn’t even this way in late 2019 when I was last there.

Just a few years ago, #Paris was choking in car traffic much more.

This is new. This is leadership.

Cities are a result of choices.
