Astrolabe Park is an #offlead #green space next to Botany #Wetlands in #Daceyville. We aim to protect it as public #openspace. #BidgigalCountry

[Save Astrolabe Park 🌿 @AstrolabePark]

#Dogs off-lead and #kids playing together. Finding a public place to do that isn’t always easy. Another reason we love #AstrolabePark #community #openspace

We highlight several studies that examine this association and highlight residential tree inequities:

The Old World has become the New World. We, once the New World, are now the Old World.

Recent housing in Western Sydney, where summer temps get close to 50C.

Tarmac. Black roofs. Hardly a tree in sight. An urban heat disaster waiting to happen.

One of the most successful pedestrian streets in the world, the Strøget in Copenhagen was filled with cars until a 2 year pilot project in 1962. The opposition argued “no cars means no business” but the street has been a massive retail success, the city’s busiest shopping street.

@smh @MeganGorrey @LucyCormack We’d just like a park for the people in Daceyville that isn’t constantly under threat from powerful sports interests

[Save Astrolabe Park 🌿 @AstrolabePark]

@RobynskiMac @NSWWaratahs Well said @RobynskiMac and we agree! #parks are for people

[Robynski MacDougal @RobynskiMac]

No parking in parks! #fortheloveofrugby @NSWWaratahs @AstrolabePark

Could this ever happen in #Sydney?

Thank goodness Biscoff doesn’t live in #Sydney, where the endless water would blow his mind. If he visited Astrolabe Park he could be equally discombobulated by the long wet grass and giant mud puddles #dog #parks

[WeRateDogs @dog_rates]

This is Biscoff. He was told he had to wear this jacket because water would be coming from the sky, yet it is on the ground. Wants to know what you're not telling him. 12/10

We're all about saving our park in Daceyville, a little pocket suburb of #Sydney, but 'Saving Sydney: Ideas for the future metropolis' on 19 Sept sounds like it could be good. With @emfarrelly @PhilipThalis @NightTimeMike1 #NSWPol #environment #urbanism https://t.co/B4Ay67JWNq

This Vienna street isn’t “closed” because cars are removed. It’s fully opened to everything else because cars are removed. HT @_dmoser for pic
