Many cities around the world, especially in Europe, are working towards green and car-free inner cities that go beyond just having pedestrian or bicycle lanes. Parts of Copenhagen and Barcelona are already dedicating parts of their cities to zones without traffic at all. Citizens from these cities have fought for greener environments and safer areas for children and senior citizens by adopting other forms of transportation like velomobiles, bicycles, and skates.
In many parts of the world, inner cities are being radically transformed. For example, Berlin is looking for ways to prevent cars from accessing parts where the majority of people no longer use a car, but have to sacrifice their space to streets full of cars just passing by. One way this is done is by transforming unused shopping centers into apartment buildings with shops in it, so people don’t even have to leave it to get what they need.
Paris is also working on cutting traffic by planting more trees around the center of the city in an effort to cut traffic significantly, while in New York parts of Broadway and near Times Square are already car-free with lots of street cafés.
Moreover, car manufacturers are also developing self-driving shuttles that hope to cut inner city traffic and provide mobility to millions of users.

In today’s increasingly and interconnected world we are closer than ever to people around the world, and our proficiency in other languages is a vital skill that gives you the opportunity to succeed in the global economy as well as keeping your brain active. Here are some of the main benefits of learning a foreign language:
- Strengthen decision making: Research shows that decisions made in your second language are more reason-driven than those made in your native language as we distance ourselves from the emotional responses and biases associated with our culture and language.
- Work out your brain: People who speak more than one language will improve their memory, problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Furthermore, as we age, learning a new language helps stave off mental aging and cognitive decline.
- Visit the world: While monolinguals are able to visit the same places as bilinguals or multilingual people, those who speak the language of that country will be able to navigate more efficiently and connect with its people in a more convenient way.
- Advance in your career: In today’s market, having more than one language is a significant competitive advantage as it is among the top eight skills required in all occupations. In the last decade, the number of job postings requesting bilingual professionals has more than doubled in the US.

Online shopping has seen a surge in the last decade, but in 2020 it looks like numbers will rocket even more due to the global pandemic that is preventing thousands of buyers to choose shopping from home for the coming holiday season, instead of going to the mall or visit shops. Here are some tips for this 2020 shopping season:
- Shop Safely: Make sure to use a familiar website that you know and have experience shopping in. Sites like Amazon have pretty much everything you need, as well as every major retail outlet with an online shop like Target, Best Buy or Home Depot. Also, make sure to create strong passwords and don’t use your credit card to buy anything online from a site that doesn't have SSL (secure sockets layer) encryption installed (Look for the lock icon in your browser).
- Shop early: Because of the increase in online shopping this year, make sure to get your shopping done early so you don’t have to deal with any delivery delays. Before the pandemic, 69% of people preferred to make their purchases online, and that number will definitely rise even more.
- Look for photos when shopping: While shopping has always been a visual and tactile experience, doing it online may be difficult for people used to this. 73% of shoppers declare they need at least more than 3 or 4 images per product to decide a purchase - so be sure to look for products with a few photos of them to make sure you get what you want.
