@supergovernance nails it in this post about the need to balance risks w return to workplace / hybrid work. #COVID is on the rise, it’s serious. Meanwhile a dispersed workforce is better able confront threats to business continuity wherever they come from (eg. weather, illness).

An important thread about how we need to think about the #design of our cities and neighbourhoods to meet #climate goals. Other #transportation options should be easy, safe and delightful.
THREAD: I’m going to try this thread to clearly state my perspective on electric vehicles, car dependency and better cities, to those who frequently ask me, including media, elected leaders and many others. Here goes. Please share if you think it helps. 🧵#EVS

B.C.’s Human Rights Commissioner, states, “Given the benefits of the mask mandate for thousands of marginalized people and the minimal impact on those being asked to wear one, the balance at this time favours continuing the mask mandate”. #bcpoli #COVID19 #WearAMask

Nice summary of vaccination against COVID on #LongCovid. TL;DR there’s still some risk, But getting vaccinated helps.
How does being vaccinated impact the risk of #LongCovid?

Beautiful story about a successful mission to evacuate preemie babies from Kyiv. 💙💛
Got a call a few nights ago about a mission to evacuate 3 preemie babies from a hospital in Kyiv.
From both sides of the border, @LeilaFadel + @arishapiro bring you the harrowing story of getting babies Lenny and Moishe out of Ukraine and into Poland. 📻npr.org/templates/story/stor…

Love this photo and comment from @timkmak. In most of Eastern Europe, Valentine’s Day isn’t celebrated. Instead, Int’l Womens Day is the day to buy flowers, chocolate, and celebrate your love for your partner.
Good morning to American readers waking up, and to everyone else, good day.
Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.
Let's start with a different track today: it's International Women's Day in Ukraine (and everywhere else).
Long lines of civilians and soldiers alike at the florist.

Loving this thread about how #Russian misinformation isn’t winning. #StandWithUkriane #UkraineRussiaWar
As someone who studies misinformation, the past week has been a masterclass in how positive actors with a strong information operation and tech platforms being (somewhat) sensible can create an environment in which misinformation struggles to take hold. A 🧵.
So much wisdom and good question in this thread re: how to handle knowledge Mgmt while scaling an org.

I hope that one of the outcomes of the the #FluTruxClan crisis is more pedestrian & bike only public spaces. #canpoli
Well said!
It’s an old playbook. Create chaos, remove validity from gov’t, create a demand for #authoritarian order, step in; OR force gov’t itself to use muscle, then yell Tyrant. Bingo, democracy doesn’t work! Enemies of it win. #blockades
