Curious about #Utrecht (@GemeenteUtrecht), where the 13th European Conference on Global Health #ECTMIH2023 will take place & how #GreenCities thinking has informed city planning? Have a look what happened right in the center of Utrecht and next to our venue @TiVre_Utrecht 👇

Wow! Wow! Wow!

North Atlantic sea surface temperature anomalies are going vertical again. And yes, I needed to extend the y-axis.

Yesterday's temperature of 24.49°C (76.08°F) was 4.2σ above the 1991-2020 mean. The previous high for July 17 was 23.71°C (74.68°F) in 2020.

For better streets, we do not need more space.
We also do not need new technologies or tools.
What we need is imagination and courage.
