Reflections from our @urbanair.bsky.social workshop: DigitalTwins are increasingly powerful, but more work is needed to translate even the most granular air pollution and climate models into actionable tools addressing urban dilemmas. Thanks for the inspiring discussions @tpmtudelft.bsky.social

Met ontsteltenis hebben wij kennis genomen van het ontslag van 46 collega’s aan de Universiteit Twente. Wij leven met hen mee. De landelijke bezuinigingen hebben catastrofale gevolgen voor universiteiten die al kampen met tekorten door krimp en inflatie. #WOinActie

My favourite discovery during the journey: Swiss trains have white table cloths on the restaurant tables; coffee comes in actual cups with an actual spoon. #smallluxuries
