The suburbs are cooked, and we can blame car culture. Even our city centers have built around the parking garage. How do we get away from the automobile in this country when everything is built with low density in mind? Bike subsidies, parking garage repurpose projects, land tax changes?

What is the post-modern suburb?

The modern American suburb is the result of unnatural market forces and unrealistic dreams, the so-called “American dream”. What do we go from here?

Hey all! I just released this week's environmental science review! I can't believe it's been 2 months! If you are tired of the winter, I talked a lot about summer heat for your escape. Give it a read (or a listen) if you can spare the time! #ENVS #Science #ClimateChange #Environment

Despite what we are often told, this line from Mamdani’s inauguration speech is what true pragmatism actually looks like: “Beginning today, we will govern expansively and audaciously. We may not always succeed. But never will we be accused of lacking the courage to try.”

Despite so much regression over the past 11 months, I want to point out some things that have made me happy these past few days/weeks: 1. Chicago transit funding 2. Neighborhoods and people coming together against ICE 3. Mamdani and all the other great election victories today Momentum!!!

Perry: Four (4) federal judges have issued rulings in the past two (2) days in separate cases that cast significant doubt on federal officials' "credibility and assessment of what is happening on the streets of Chicago."

These are trying times and scary times but science WILL prevail. There seem to be two sub-sects of climate deniers; those who profit, and those who are maliciously misinformed. The question will be; how will this revelation come to light to the latter of said-individuals.

Nazis: "that's a nazi salute" Historians: "that's a nazi salute" Average person: "that's a nazi salute" The Media: "Elon Musk makes odd gesture throwing his heart to the crowd."
