Ten of the Stickiest Changes Underway in Cities Today

我们不能也不应该阻碍我们的城市正在进行的积极变化, 哪些正在以“正常”时期不可能的方式利用人类的聪明才智和适应性. The p和emic offers an opportunity to accelerate positive change, 这是全球大流行病造成的毁灭性人类悲剧中为数不多的一线希望之一.

对已建立系统的更改可以被描述为反动的或粘性的. Reactionary changes are the actions we need to take to get through a particular crisis. 它们是短期的，不能长期持续或保证. Sticky changes are also actions we take to get through a crisis, 但它们之所以经久不衰，是因为它们改变了我们的生活方式，使之变得更好.

All cities need to reach out, seek advice, 和 offer their own, because 新型冠状病毒肺炎 is a global crisis, 和 we’re all looking for answers. 许多人吸取的经验教训是无价的，将为未来指明道路.

We need each other. Local businesses want to make a contribution to their communities, 他们正在以创新和创造性的方式适应并做出自己的改变. Local governments should tap into that expertise.
