I’m sharing my family’s battle with COVID in the hopes that it can raise awareness of the dangers to the most vulnerable among us, and nudge leaders to muster the courage to implement vaccine and mask mandates, right now. Lives are at stake. Thread.
On August 9th, my 10yo daughter tested positive on a surveillance test at her school, with no fever and no symptoms. Props to @apsupdate for mask mandate and surveillance testing, which is why her infection did not spread to any other family.

I started (unknowingly) on a path to dramatic carbon reduction on Jan 1, 2017, when I started biking to work, walking kids to school. Carbon reduction became addictive, and more deeply nourishing than I ever thought possible. #myfirststep Thread.
Biking to work is a carbon pittance, I know. But it opened my eyes to structural barriers, so I became the Traffic Chair for my neighborhood board and have become a fixture down at City Hall on bike/ped/multimodal safety in Atlanta. I had NEVER been to City Hall in 14yrs prior!
