In April I went to Copenhagen and like any urbanist/normal person/american it had me walking (and biking) around feeling hopeful and frustrated at the same time, reiterating “WE COULD HAVE SO MANY NICE THINGS.” Things, in this context being accessible public spaces, cities built for people, bike lanes, creative and cool dense housing, etc.
I enjoyed this sm! A ‘simple’ shift from a linear to circular thinking with economic issues actually has such a big impact on that way we consider everything, especially resources and profit. I also think solution-based thinking is so important rn when everything feels very doomsday. Thanks for showing something that highlights a way through 💡
Wow! I love all of this. Thanks for reporting on and writing this— even amidst all the awful that is happening in the US. Creating while reusing previous materials makes me so happy— and gives me energy and motivation to work on other issues ( like trying to keep our country from going to a full-on police state). Good work!
It takes everyone. So whatever you're focused on - and me and the person reading this comment - all makes up the whole. It is necessary and important. And sometimes the smaller fish becomes bigger fish.
Thank you for your post. Have you heard of Looptworks out of Portland, Oregon? They did a really cool project with an airline who was changing their branding. They took everything: flight attendant uniforms, leather from seats, seatbelts, and even the safety vests and reworked them into really cool products.

Love the transparent priorities they share!
