Tipping
The COVID-19 crisis is pushing us towards several positive tipping points. One is the reclamation of space in cities for pedestrians and cyclists. Many cities in Europe, from Milan to Brussels, are using the pandemic to accelerate plans to get more cars off the roads, while New York is phasing in 100 miles of car-free streets. Delivery robots and drones are another trend that will likely advance much quicker due to the virus. And virtual meetings, conferences and classrooms are being pressure-tested as never before, forcing technology improvements and behaviour changes that nudge us towards more climate-wise choices post-pandemic.
