“We must forget the crossing of Paris from east to west by car. The city needs to evolve.”
- @Anne_Hidalgo

Not just a world-class park
Not just a commercial corridor
Not just a certain neighborhood

🌱 Ecological city transformation to clean the air + improve the daily lives of its citizens
🌱 Turn traffic choked intersections into pedestrian plazas. Create children’s streets next to schools
🌱 Make motorists an endangered species in the city

How can we clone @Anne_Hidalgo

She isn’t talking about congestion pricing or saying EVs will save them.
She is unapologetic about her goal to improve the health of her people, city, and planet.
She will be remembered as the leader who looked at cars and simply said, “Non”.
