Housing in London is in crisis. 1 in 6 households are in core housing need, while people experiencing homelessness cannot find a place. buff.ly/2TMobTk

The report that outlines the $230million repair bill is a 2015 report and is out of date. The number is likely much higher now. This is absolutely a crisis w/ our housing stock (which doesn’t even come close to meeting demand) London Free Press @MeganatLFPress lfpress.com/news/local-new…

People are asking questions that have until now lurked on the margins. What should we do about the homeless? In Third World slums? The unemployed? Who cannot work from home? Finally, ideas like student debt relief and universal basic income are blossoming. j.mp/3dO7eSR

Amsterdam implements the doughnut model to integrate environment and economy. The model is derived from United Nations' #SDGs. The inner ring of her donut sets out the minimum we need to lead a good life. The outer ring represents the ecological ceiling j.mp/3e0qX1M
