Doughnut calling urban design!
From a street in Birmingham to a harbour in Oslo - learn from places retrofitting & rebuilding with Doughnut Economics as inspiration. Webinar 7 Dec. with insights from guests incl. @charliedmonds@CIVIC_SQUARE Join here: https://t.co/ubrV88hycy
Today officially marks 8 billion humans on Earth. Meanwhile humanity has wiped out 70% of wild animal populations since 1970. We don't live outside of nature.
Small is Beautiful - or Small is Stupid? My life in economics practically began with this question. I hugely enjoyed telling the backstory in this lecture @Center4NewEcon - a rare chance to honour economic elders & aim to do justice to their ideas today. https://t.co/wwwIekCA3t
Wow. Quite the thought experiment! ๐คฏ
You won't see things the same way after watching this video!
We need to unlearn what we take for granted, so as to see the world with fresh eyes, if we are to find bold and creative solutions we need to the #ClimateCrisis
๐คWe are bringing professional and community path managers online to share their learning. This is especially important as the Covid-19 pandemic and #climatechange are putting more pressure on our path networks.

This afternoon we collected natural materials from our playground to make yucky potions tomorrow! We chose things like grass to look like worms ๐ชฑ berries as eyeballs ๐ and collected some mud to make our potions nice and thick and disgusting ๐คฎ ๐งช @st_josephps#PlayInverclyde
We saw lots of signs of autumn on our way back from the Rezzy @OfCoves ๐ we enjoyed making crunching sounds when walking through the leaves ๐ after our busy afternoon of exploring we enjoyed a hot cup of vegetable soup that we had made, it tasted delicious ๐ ๐ฅฃ @st_josephps
We just love our Friday visits to the Rezzy @OfCoves we spotted a hairy caterpillar on our way ๐ we also spotted some mushrooms and berries ๐๐ซ but we know that they are not safe to eat! @st_josephps#outdoorlearning#assessingrisk
