    [synopsis] => "Congested city streets are noisy and thick with cars and trucks, while pedestrians and cyclists are, squeezed to the dangerous edges, but does it have to be this way? Imagine a city, where we aren't stuck in cars, where clean air makes it easier to breathe, and where, transit is easy to access, and on time. Imagine a city, where streets are for people!

This fun, accessible and ultimately hopeful book explores sustainable transportation around the globe, including electric vehicles, public transit, bicycles, walking and more. It invites us to conjure up a city of the future, where these, modes are all used together to create a place that is sustainable, healthy, accessible and safe. Includes a list of ideas for children to promote green transportation in their communities, along with a glossary and sources for further reading.

The Think Cities series is, inspired by the urgency for new approaches to city life as a result of climate change, population growth and increased density. It highlights the challenges and risks cities face, but also offers hope for building resilience, sustainability and quality of life as young people advocate for themselves and their communities."
