This article on Healthy Cities by @evdle.bsky.social might seem like ancient history but I really like it because it's so rare to find a clear articulation of the program theory, process, and outcomes of an agenda like Healthy Cities. I wish more people would do exactly this. We'd learn a lot.

#PFAS
Problem is that the #PFAS family is large and diverse. They’re by-products of incredibly popular consumer goods and now have deposited, toxically, everywhere.

Missed historical opportunities: Australia could’ve been Zuidland (or Södralandet).

We’d be ruled by Kong Carl XVI Gustaf (and soon-ish his Victoria) or Wim-Lex (and Amalia) instead of Charles.
