Turns out closing a traffic lane on a main street really wasn't that difficult.

The fact that a global pandemic will only cut carbon emissions by single digits illustrates how “people focus way, way too much on personal footprints, and whether they fly or not, without really dealing w the structural [sources]" as @ClimateOfGavin says grist.org/climate/the-wo…

As we come out of the pandemic crisis, we are going to have a public washroom crisis. We have to stop building highways and start building toilets. treehugger.com/bathroom-desig…

Various spots along Danforth Would be great if they just closed down one lane Maybe widen the sidewalk with barrels and put in a pilot bike lane? That would give people a safe #activetransportation option along the subway line #CurbTO #streets4peopleTO #CyclistsShopLocal

From @globeandmail: “Cities have … faced more demand for transit or they’ve had to take on social services downloaded to them from above. But they receive only a small percentage of what is paid in taxes.” #COVID19 #cdnmuni #cdnpoli ⤵️ theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

Si vous résidez dans @LePMR nous vous invitons à aller vous promener sur les nouvelles rues familiales et actives, et à profiter du ☀️ tout en respectant les consignes de santé publique! Et sachez que ces nouvelles rues seront déployées ailleurs en ville très bientôt 🌈

I predicted that this crisis was going to provoke a drive-in cinema renaissance, but combining it with repurposed obsolete airports is genius

Lithuanians have found a clever way to combine airports, cinema and social distancing 📽️🚗

Critical: #lockdown was a tool to #flattenthecurve and avoid overwhelming hospitals. We have been doing this. Stage Two I have been calling the ‘inbetween’ - moving from crisis to ‘living with covid19’ in the absence of a vaccine. Governments shouldn’t get stuck in #lockdown.

The purpose of the #lockdown and #shutdown was to allow hospitals to cope with #COVID19 spike. It was not to cure the disease. We are now entering a new phase, “living with Covid-19”. This will be our new normal until a vaccine is found or the virus runs out of victims. 1/2

We need to talk about the creation of a strong resilient local economy producing real value locally with support for start-ups and strategic investments in community-supporting, prosperity-producing public facilities, spaces, and amenities.

If not for this Covid thing, I'd be leading the 14th annual Death and Life of Upper Midway #janeswalk on the East Danforth this weekend. With luck and health, we'll be back again next May with our eyes on the street, our feet on the sidewalks and new tales to tell. @JanesWalkTO
