@chanelayan I just watched the episode (now crying). You are very brave; and sooo successful because you have come so far. And are the most fun to watch (and root for) due to your great sense of humor. 💛
Excited to visit the Port of Charleston as part of the #ACEC Private Market Symposium, exploring the intermodal and logistics market and how engineers can design and improve our supply chain.
Register today for our first ever symposium on intermodal and logistics in Charleston, SC on 12/3. Join experts in trade, real estate, and land development to discuss current events in the supply chain and the regional economy. Learn more & register here: https://t.co/XbrgDa0ofi

Did you know that the Energy & Utilities market sector accounts for 30 percent of ENR 500 annual revenues? Learn more about the Energy & Utilities market on the latest ACEC Private Markets Update with Erin McLaughlin. https://t.co/agJVRP5WEk
In the latest Private Side column in Engineering Inc., read how alternative and high-frequency data is valuable in tracking economic recovery. Read article here: https://t.co/s2hIbx9ROO
This week, ACEC released our latest Private Industry Brief, which provides detailed information and targeted insights on key A/E private sectors. ACEC's Erin McLaughlin joined the Engineering Influence podcast to dive a little deeper into the numbers. https://t.co/I0HCIbNd7i
@FutureCities4 Agree with those interviewed by BBC re: post-pandemic; two stand-outs for change: central office districts less important (remote working), and appreciation for park space. #endofsemester Coronavirus: Will our day-to-day ever be the same? https://t.co/Bm529qDoOR
@FutureCities4 Montgomery’s Happy City book is a standout-with the takeaway that urban design creating more equitable cities results in a higher quality of life (‘happiness’) for all. #futurecitiesVaTech See: Charles Montgomery | TEDxVancouver https://t.co/vPD9i93pGw via @YouTube
@FutureCities4 Automation could transform freight transportation and logistics in the U.S. — critical markets, revealed to be even more so during the pandemic. #futurecitiesVaTech#AutonomousVehicles https://t.co/B1jfxMvruB via @McKinsey
America's engineers will be critical to the success of any #infrastructure bill passed by Congress. Thank you, @SecretaryPete, for discussing your priorities for infrastructure and the American Jobs Plan with our members this morning at the #ACEC2021ANNUAL event.
@FutureCities4 Documenting towns/cities that have historically represented black liberation can help inform new movements that reframe urban design, such as BlackSpace. #futurecitiesVaTech#afrofuturism https://t.co/rWjgkP54iz
@FutureCities4 Cities can be ‘smart’, and so can parks! UCLA’s APA-award-winning toolkit explores how technology can be integrated into park design and management to enhanced access and other improvements. #futurecitiesVaTech#biophiliccities https://t.co/fKkLhnja1c
@FutureCities4 Turning to natural light in commercial building design can save energy and $. DOE estimates 17% of electricity use in commercial buildings (largest use) is lighting. Some ideas/benefits for harvesting daylight. #futurecitiesVaTech https://t.co/rfZxcKFY69
@FutureCities4 Commercial buildings are responsible for 16% of carbon emissions (in US); this past week was Net Zero Buildings Week, key to raising discourse on design solutions! #futurecitiesVaTech https://t.co/Oz6vWRi02m via @energygov
@FutureCities4 Skepticism of climate change should be taught as a sociopolitical issue, not as a reasoned position. For more on how universities can impact climate change through teaching, (strategies for reversing!): #futurecitiesVaTech https://t.co/aFz7nRzFf3
The term “third world countries” is outdated, and to many insulting. What may have been intended as a political term (non-US allies that weren’t Soviet Union aligned/‘second world’) came to imply a lesser-than ranking. What is used now? #futurecitiesVaTech https://t.co/blS3gSEH6s
@FutureCities4 A global economy with economic interdependence does encourage cooperation (with future ‘cold wars’ unlikely), with current China-U.S. relations as an example. #futureCitiesVaTech https://t.co/lMIrW7Lxk9
