    Everyone's talking about Kansas City, Missouri today—surely it's because of the city's fare-free transit system.

  9. The good news is the city is already testing some smart solutions for saving mature trees while fixing sidewalks—we can have both!

  10. The policy as it stands now ignores the fact that some neighborhoods faced with combatting extreme heat or freeway pollution can't spare the loss of a handful of mature trees.

  11. We already know most of LA's shade trees are clustered in a handful of wealthy neighborhoods. I would guess that a majority of the streets with smooth *and* shady sidewalks are in those same neighborhoods.

  12. It looks like LA might finally move towards a policy of leaving mature trees in place when repairing sidewalks: This is a huge problem, especially for neighborhoods that don't have much of an urban canopy to begin with.

    Revealing look inside Amazon’s decision to forego relationship-building and wring big incentives out of cities & states for HQ2: “This entire thing was an ego exercise that blew up in Jeff Bezos’s face.”

  16. Another really good point. All car ads are classist but this is really the wrong way to market EVs.

    Tomorrow, I will start taking public transit into City Hall. I will start at the shuttle in front of Atlantic Station around 8am, and then proceed to Art Center Station into downtown and to City Hall. If you would like to join me, meet me at Art Center Station by 8:15am.

  19. Would love to see similar analysis looking at the number of SUVs vs. non-SUVs advertised at the Super Bowl over the last 10 years. Just one sedan for 2020 according to my count.

  21. Here’s some analysis of alectric car advertising, who spends what, and if it works. Also interesting to note the overall number of Super Bowl car ads is down.
