We also hear why cities must focus on improving energy infrastructure and #retrofitting buildings.   “Policymakers have a duty to make sure the built environment is accessible, inclusive, and welcoming for all. Blending old with new and mixing uses makes for a more interesting place”.   Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
