Please stop feeding pigeons. You are quite literally sponsoring respiratory diseases to yourself and people around.

Development should not be associated with GDP and economic growth only. Social welfare and environmental protection is equally important!

This is a footpath opposite to the Tata Communications building. just a 2 mins walk from Flora Fountain.

4 kilometers away, MMRDA will spend more than 2x the annual budget of Nagpur Municipal Corporation to add just 4 lanes of road (underground) to chase the elusive goal of stoppage free travel for mostly cars. Yeah we say stoppage free because signal free doesn't mean stoppage free when everybody drives a car and the signal free road is jammed.

How about fixing this footpath? It has been like this for years. Saw an elderly twist his ankle here.

By spending less than 1% of this one tunnel's budget, BMC was able to provide 5 great quality footpaths including the best ones ones we saw in Dadar & Chembur #CommunityWalks. And they ARE of international quality. We can attest to that fact.

Lets not keep appeasing the vehicle owners at the cost of us pedestrians. We emit 0 pollution. We cause negligible damage to the infra we use & we don't take up valuable space in the city so starved of space that we dig up the few parks we have, just to bury our cars. Cars which mind you, do nothing but sit there for 22 out of 24 hours in the day when they are not being driven.

Car traffic has taken over our public space.
Cities have become machines.
But breaking this status quo is possible!

If you think adding road capacity is a SOLUTION, you are a part of the PROBLEM.

Yet there’s still no honest way to say NYC is “bike friendly”. Everyone loves easy talk of numbers, but so many “protected” bike lanes look like this every day, and absolutely no one is tackling or working this problem @NYCMayor

"In the 1960s, urban planners were convinced cars had to get everywhere. And everywhere fast. Today they rather dedicate valuable city center space to people."

With the conversion of motorway to waterway, Utrecht corrects a historic urban design mistake:

Mumbaikars were in for a treat this weekend, thanks to #CycloneBiparjoy's influence over the coastal city.

Here we see a spectacular #Arcus shelf cloud, often associated with thunderstorms. This was spotted near Nariman Point, #Mumbai on Sunday, June 11.

A global study reveals that Dutch residents are the most physically active on earth, getting 12.8 hours of exercise each week. The key—designing activity into daily life. The average #Dutch person cycles about 1,098 kilometers per year. HT @Cycling_Embassy

Our cities do not need your driverless cars.
They desperately need more carless drivers!
