🏙️While #cities take center stage, the importance of #rural areas is overlooked in many places. 6⃣6⃣% of Europe's economic strength in GDP per capita growth comes from "the country".
🌳How can we make non-metropolitan areas more appealing?

Just because YOU don’t want to live in an apartment or ride a bike to work doesn’t mean OTHER PEOPLE should be unable to do so.
Let’s reform our zoning, permitting, and parking laws so we all have the freedom to choose how we live in society.

🌇 In more than 1/3 of OECD #cities, the average summer temperatures were 3⃣°C warmer in built-up lands than the areas surrounding it.
