What if we designed our cities, and the land-uses, densities & infrastructure that make them what they are, so that daily activity and exercise was just a normal, ordinary, almost “invisible” part of every day life?
It’s actually not that hard. We just have to change our priorities. #HealthyCities

“Compared with non-active travelers, the cyclists had a 19% lower risk of all-cause dementia, a 22% lower risk of Alzheimer's, a 40% lower risk of young-onset dementia (before the age of 65), & a 17% lower risk of late-onset dementia.”

Cycling Linked to Lower Risk of Dementia, Study of Half a Million Finds

A powerful reminder of why active mobility matters. 🚶♀️🚴♂️

“If you’ve been following recent debates about health, you’ve been hearing a lot about vaccines, diet, measles, Medicaid cuts and health insurance costs – but much less about one of the greatest threats to global public health: climate change.” Via @theconversation.com #ClimateCrisis #HealthyCities
Want to make America healthy again? Stop fueling climate change
From extreme heat to mosquito-borne illnesses, climate change is making people sicker and more vulnerable to disease. Health scientists explain what individuals and governments can do about it.

A real move toward public health, not just curbing vanity noise. Other cities, take note!
