So fun! The @NBCNightlyNews story included my obsession with non-working drinking fountains. I enjoyed being the "good news" segment at the end of a newscast filled with really depressing stories. https://t.co/svE80suGW7

interesting that pro-pedestrian and cyclist infrastructure and design are also supporting 911 response times in some cities. That would feed two birds with one stone fruit in DC @BrianneKNadeau @RobertWhite_DC @DDOTDC

@BrookingsInst former @federalreserve economist @RobGrunewald’s report shows #greenschoolyards benefits likely outweigh cost. How can we fund these at scale to better utilize 2 million acres of community-centered public land under our noses? #ValuingNature

Our public education system chooses a hard line between outdoors and indoors: in schedule and curriculum, we're constantly messaged that indoors = learning and outdoors = play. (1/7)

Great piece and call to action for anyone who loves DC’s forests.

[Jacob Fenston @JacobFenston]

What if your favorite national park forest is no longer there in a few decades? It's a real possibility. Our forests are failing, and at risk of "widespread forest loss." https://t.co/M6hmZZ7dcb

@AllisterSBOE @TheEconomist Recommend getting DCPS data first. Our elementary DCPS school already starts after doors close at 8:45am.

Via @JacobFenston & @wamu885 on lack of hiking trails in Ward 8 (just 1.5 miles, compared to #RockCreekPark's 32 miles), despite the vast expanse of woods. "The vision is for a network [of trails] of more than 10 miles." -Nathan Harrington, @ward8woods https://t.co/qhEsJGL3J0
