The problem we face is not that GDP is down, but that people don't have adequate livelihoods or access to the resources they need to live healthy, flourishing lives. So target that problem directly, rather than pretending that GDP growth will somehow magically do it for you.
As cities emerge from coronavirus lockdowns, the way people use parks, stores, restaurants, transit, streets and homes is changing in ways both subtle and significant. #hackyourcity#BuildBackBetter https://t.co/DfpLnwnt62
