Today is World Oceans Day. I wanted to go jump in the harbour, but because of the run-off of insufficient infrastructure—horrible pollution going into the water—it was actually unsafe for swimming everywhere around here, and part of that is because of our transport system and the wide expanse of tarmac everywhere. Our urban areas are totally, entirely, designed around cars and trucks, and that is completely understandable. But, unfortunately, while cars can be very practical for some trips, they are not practical for every person trying to get around a crowded urban area at the same time, and that's why we have congestion. No matter where we live in a city, no matter what our circumstances are, all people should be able to move easily around and to get where they need to go in ways that are good for their health and protect our planet. That is what the Green Party is working for.
