Existe algum caso de cidade que tenha eliminado ou reduzido espaço para o carro e que não tenha dado certo ou que tenham voltado atrás? Impressionante a teimosia em não reconhecer e aplicar políticas comprovadamente positivas mundo a fora.

Together we are One.
I think there should be policy bans on AI use below a certain age, the way Australia and a few other countries have actually banned social media for kids below a certain age
I've just had a realisation that a lot of the pro AI crowd are kinda old and maybe don't realise they already developed enough expertise to use AI in a nuanced way (if they choose). If you're young and use it, you simply won't develop. Full stop.

To me it is very notable that the first photo with an English-speaking Caribbean country PM is Grenada’s Dickon Mitchell.
If we recall the last 4 months of 2025 — it was Venezuela’s sovereignty being directly threatened by the US who asked Grenada 1st about a radar installation.
This doesn’t need to be true today. But they do have a lot of undersea cables nearby that really can send Europe, Asia, and parts of Africa into a world without the Internet. For a long long time. And the ripples would ripple.
Guyana launches digital ID. The system will streamline access to public services and allow citizens to pass through the airport using facial recognition without stopping at immigration. Opposition groups warn about privacy concerns for citizens. https://t.co/Q88KiGwivK

He resigned from the U.N. and ended his diplomatic career to leak the fact that they’re preparing for a nuclear weapon to bomb Iran. We’re not doing enough to stop this.
I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation as the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use in Iran.
This is a picture of Tehran. For you uneducated, untraveled, never-served, warhawks licking your chops at the thought of bombing it. It's not some low population desert. There are families, children, family pets. Regular working class people with dreams. You're sick to want war.
Tehran is a city of nearly 10,000,000 people. Imagine nuking Washington, Berlin, Paris, London, or beyond, bombed with nuclear weapons.
I gave up my diplomatic career to leak this information. I suspended my duties so as not to be part of or a witness to this crime against humanity, in an attempt to prevent a nuclear winter before it is too late.
Yesterday, nearly ten million people protested “No Kings” in the United States. The possibility of the use of nuclear weapons must be taken very seriously. It's dangerous. Act now. Spread this message worldwide. Take the streets. Protest for our humanity and future. Only the people can stop it. History will remember us.
