NYPD Officer James Giovansanti has been "grounded," meaning he can't drive an NYPD squad car by himself.

This morning was so much fun & a wonderful way to end our #BikeBus spring season and @NYCSchools year 🥰 We wish everyone a lovely summer with r&r and lots of joy.

Don't ever forget this story. Leading up to the crash, the killer had:

🚔 21 speeding tickets in 2 years
🚔 6 red light camera violations in 6 months
🚔 70+ other violations in 2 years

She was still free to drive at a murderous speed.

Designing streets to calm traffic is critical, but a small percent of the population is completely comfortable committing antisocial behavior involving a car. That type of person is far more likely to be involved in a life-altering crash. And if the court system doesn't hand out severe consequences, that antisocial person is never going to stop.

A major heatwave is shattering records across Europe, leaving tens of millions of people under sweltering conditions.

France topped a record for the country's hottest day ever for the second consecutive day. The United Kingdom and Spain both hit record highs for the month of June.

The ‘Great Israeli Real Estate Event’ is to be held in London this Sunday.

This disgraceful event will involve the sale of land stolen from Palestinians in illegal Israeli settlements.

Today, I called for the Government to ban this event.

[NYC Emergency Management @nycemergencymgt]

🌡️ Heads up, NYC: heat builds Thursday and Friday, feeling like 95 to 100°F (about 35 to 38°C), with scattered storms possible through Friday evening.

NYC Emergency Management is coordinating the City's heat and storm response, and we want every New Yorker to have a Cool Option.

Find your Cool Option:
❄️ A Cool Option is any air-conditioned space where you can get relief: a library, a mall, a museum, a café, or the home of a friend or family member with AC.
🏛️ Official NYC Cooling Centers are free and open in every borough, activated beginning Thursday. Find the nearest one at https://t.co/04ULpqxfIY or call 311.
💧 Drink water before you feel thirsty, take breaks in the shade, and check on neighbors and older adults without AC.

Stay storm-ready:
⛈️ Hear thunder? Head indoors and off rooftops and away from scaffolding
🌳 Watch for falling trees and branches, especially where last weekend's storm left damage. Steer clear of downed limbs and power lines.
🌊 In a basement and water starts coming in? Get to a higher floor or outside right away. Do not wait to see how high it rises.
🚗 Never walk or drive through flooded streets. Turn around, don't drown.

Providing sidewalks doesn't require people to use the sidewalks for every trip.

Providing buses doesn't require people to use the bus for every trip.

Providing bike lanes doesn't require people to use bikes for every trip.

A good transportation system is one that gives people practical options so they can choose how to get around for each trip they make.

El Niño is arriving on our doorstep in the coming months with 90% certainty.

The world must treat it as the urgent climate warning it is.

The only effective response is #ClimateAction equal to the crisis – ending the addiction to fossil fuels, accelerating the shift to renewables, protecting the most vulnerable, and delivering early warning systems for all.
