When it comes to achieving better cities for people, a BIG challenge is how little space we have for public life, given the space we’ve surrendered to cars. Barcelona’s “superblocks” show what we can fit if we took some space back. Video by Melissa & Chris Bruntlett

Happy International Women's Day! Honored by the invitation to participate in the Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet's panel discussion. My takeaway - the importance of not changing yourself to conform to male standards of professionalism - instead redefining notions of success to work for you.

Journalists, you might want to try holding this in front of politicians’ faces and asking them what the fuck they plan to do about it. It is, really, the only question that matters. #GeneralElection

People on foot are the indicator species of urban vitality and prosperity. People bring time, money and affectionate attachment to places and other people. Cars are inanimate objects that devour time, money, health and space. Cities are for people.

What does "rural" electrification mean after decades of rapid urbanization on the African continent? Bryan Bonseok Koo and I explore the intersection of this question and SDG 7 policymaking in a recently published Live Wire - openknowledge.worldbank.org/handle/10986/4…

This country has invested so little in trains that, to deal with the overwhelming demand for train travel in North Carolina, Amtrak had to use private heritage excursion trains because they literally don’t have enough trains to run. This country wants trains, full stop.

Taking nothing away from The incredible Barbra Banda 👏🏾. But for me that’s a foul on Lacy Santos in the build up all day long. Should have been called. #NWSLChampionship  #Nwsl
