Felt like this exact moment in Lagaan when the rain finally came to Seattle today - amazing what a bit of drizzle can do for air quality 🙏🏽🌧️
Many won't know this, but Phua Chu Kang (popular comedian mentioned below) has in fact been serving up pandemic raps and whimsical music videos since SARS in 2003... enjoy: vimeo.com/268362161
In an effort to fight vaccine hesitancy, Singapore’s government has debunked misinformation and ordered corrections to misleading social media posts.
Its latest weapon in the fight against vaccine myths? A whimsical music video by a popular comedian.

Discovered @priyaparker and her deeply meaningful + highly practical work on the #ArtofGathering last year, in a year defined by 'un-gathering'. She delivered a keynote at #SXSW this year and it is a gem. Also, major #CoupleGoals @AnandWrites! youtube.com/watch?v=t1ttUFmX…
Hello AJ - Your groceries website is down, and has been since yesterday - are you aware of this? Unable to checkout. Thanks
.@KateRaworth talks about moving from linear ‘take-make-waste’ to circular in cities. There’s huge potential for #circulareconomy to address carbon emissions while creating economic opportunities! That sounds like #TheFutureWeWant ellenmacarthurfoundation.org… – at Copenhagen, Denmark
Watching @algore speak @ #C40summit: a childhood dream come true. As a 16 yr old I organised a screening/discussion of @aitruthfilm at my school. I had never seen our assembly hall so packed & a group of teens stunned into silence. It has motivated me ever since. Thank you sir! – at Copenhagen, Denmark
At the #C40Summit, @MarkWatts40 exec director of @c40cities says that while progress has been made on waste and resource management in their cities, it’s “still not enough - we need to move further, faster towards something more like the #circulareconomy”. We couldn’t agree more!
We're heading to the @c40cities World Mayor's Summit this week! How can the @circulareconomy help tackle #climatechange? Read our contribution to the conversation: ellenmacarthurfoundation.org… @MajaJohannessen #TheFutureWeWant
The Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s @jossbleriot kicks off Great Lakes Circular Economy Forum. Setting global context and asking what the North America-specific drivers for #circulareconomy might be with @EU_Commission and @EPA: innovation, communities, small business? #GLCEF2019
Governing Mayor of Oslo @RaymondJohansen kicks off #UFGC19, sharing story of how Oslo reclaimed its waterfront... which I got to enjoy on my run this morning! Cities changed by #citychangers #Oslove
And for your flight over to Oslo: check out our online suite of resources for city governments. What's the #circulareconomy? What are the benefits for cities? What can city govs do about it? Who is acting already? All that and more, folks! bit.ly/2C24Eay
