We believe that a community-led approach, focusing on localised issues that directly affect our community but also contribute to the challenges facing our climate and environment, is fundamental to effective climate action.<br>Through several physical projects that provide opportunity for engagement in the community, we are facilitating space for local people to participate in conversation about car travel, walking &amp;&nbsp;cycling, community-led solutions and localised energy to effect change. We have three flagship Streets mini-projects &#8211; the School Street, Residential Street and High Street.&nbsp; These will support temporary physical interventions and providing opportunity for inspiration.&nbsp;The project is currently funded for 12 months and as we are half-way through the calendar&nbsp;year. &nbsp;We are excited to present \u2018where we are now\u2019 whilst showcasing what&nbsp;is still to come.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/568920624#t=41m28s\"><strong>Celeste Hicks (Volunteer at Mums for Lungs)<\/strong><\/a><br>\u201cMums for Lungs was founded in London in 2017 when a group of new mums met on maternity leave. Spending&nbsp;time&nbsp;walking the streets with sleeping babies, we became concerned about the high levels of traffic and air pollution. The more we learned the more we became frustrated that driving and vehicle use has become prioritised over safe streets for all of us to use. Air pollution causes severe health impacts, and children and babies are more susceptible because their lungs are smaller. Now our kids are older and at school, we&#8217;re focusing our efforts on awareness raising and behaviour change&nbsp;at school &#8211; campaigning&nbsp;for school streets, making walking and&nbsp;cycling&nbsp;easier, and hoping that parents will choose to leave the car at home.

Over the last century too many have become roads to drive through and park cars. This is changing. While some low traffic neighbourhoods (LTNs) have existed for decades, they have sprung up more recently first in Walthamstow and, in the last year, in many, especially inner, London boroughs. Having removed the through traffic, the next question is what should be done to create a greater sense of place so that people of all ages once again linger, chat and play. Children have been driven off the streets; do changes need to be made to bring them back?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This episode of Walking@Tea-time explored these issues, looking at how they have been addressed in Barcelona and the plans for a London-wide campaign, and what can be achieved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>David Harrison, London Living Streets, and transport historian,<\/strong> briefly explored the history of London&#8217;s streets, followed by our two main speakers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/515880086#t=9m40s\">S\u00edlvia Casorr\u00e1n<\/a>, who works with the Superblocks Office in Barcelona City Council.<\/strong> Since July 2019 she has been the mobility councillor for Sant Mart\u00ed District in Barcelona.

In particular, the question of whether they can capture the human experience of walking?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a few years, we\u2019ve gone from a world in which people found their way using the AtoZ to one in which they rely on their smart-phones. But this is more than a change of medium: in addition to efficient route-finding, algorithms have the potential to provide us with highly customised options and to draw our attention to points of interest or opportunities of particular interest to us. Can this induce us to walk more? And is there something special about the paper map that we lose when we reach for our phones?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two experts will assisted us with our enquiries (Click names below to jump to presentations):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/481174681#t=6m\"><strong>Ana Basiri, Professor of Geospatial Data Science at University of Glasgow<\/strong><\/a>, whose ground-breaking work with large datasets has included the creation of maps from crowd-sourced data<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/481174681#t=28m35s\"><strong>Hana Sutch, Co-Founder and Chief Walker &amp; Talker at Go Jauntly<\/strong><\/a>, the innovative app that both provides and gathers information about great walks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cycling@Breakfast-time &#8211; Working with the unwilling<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">22nd Oct 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"rve-embed-responsive rve-embed-responsive-16by9\"><iframe title=\"Cycling@Breakfast-time - working with the unwilling (22nd Oct 2020)\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/472576642?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Much is said and written about the more go-ahead transport authorities and their work to promote and facilitate cycling.
