£770m. That’s the economic benefit international students contributed to the city of Sheffield in the 2021-2 academic year.
We’re calling on the government to recognise the economic, social and cultural value of international students and remove them from net migration figures.

If walking costs you $1, we all pay $0.01. If biking costs you $1, we all pay $0.08. If bussing costs you $1, we all pay $1.50. If driving costs you $1, we all pay $9.20. Via @thediscourse study.
This isn’t just about choice. It’s about who pays for your choice.

Remember, Paris wasn’t “always this way.”
It wasn’t even this way in late 2019 when I was last there.
Just a few years ago, #Paris was choking in car traffic much more.
This is new. This is leadership.
Cities are a result of choices.

I can strongly recommend this as a great opportunity for anyone interested in geopolymers, cements, and/or nuclear waste! - this builds from a couple of projects I was involved with in the past, and Brant and the Sheffield/Hokkaido team are continuing to do very cool things.
