There are 168 « rue aux écoles » in Paris meaning « Streets for schools » with no cars, more safety, more trees, less noise and less pollution. 114 of them were created during the pandemic. In all, 204 schools are covered by such a street in Paris!

"This is something that says to Indigenous people: You are seen, you are welcome in this space."

Improving health through improving the environment: Toronto Western Hospital @UHN is cutting emissions by 8K tonnes of carbon (and soon 16K) annually with new energy transfer system that uses wastewater; thanks to @cityoftoronto @NoventaEnergy > toronto.citynews.ca/video/20…

We are ready to dig the wet well! The WET system project - lead by @NoventaEnergy and UHN's Facilities Management - will address climate change in our everyday lives and improve our sustainability efforts.

Today, we broke ground on the Wastewater Energy Transfer project for @UHN's Toronto Western Hospital - in which wastewater will be utilized as a source of energy.
The first of its kind, this is an example of public-private sector partnerships that help us tackle climate action.
Ed Rubinstein retweeted
We're breaking ground this morning on the world's largest raw wastewater energy transfer (WET) System going in at Toronto Western Hospital!
The WET System will use thermal energy from a municipal sewer to supply 90% of our heating/cooling - cutting GHGs by 10K tonnes every year!
Ed Rubinstein retweeted
Oh, NBD - just over here breaking ground on the world's largest raw wastewater energy transfer system with my FM-PRO team!
Once it supplies heating/cooling to @UHN's Toronto Western Hospital, it will reduce carbon emissions by the equivalent of more than 1,800 cars per year!

Our first #BikeTO protected intersection is now operational.
A few minor signage changes & completion of the TTC Island to come, but the permanent signals & line markings are in place
Bioswale is also starting to do its thing.
(traffic signals are bigger than you think they are)
Progress update from #BikeTO YorkU.
Line markings are almost done.
Bike counters in place.
Removal of temp signals/poles & activation of permanent infrastructure hopefully before the long weekend.
TTC bus testing tomorrow morning along with more bioswale plantings & sod.
