“Go on, get out of your armchair!”

An European Commission - UEFA common campaign promoting physical activity will present this season a TV spot during the Champions League matches. The voice belongs to Luciano Pavarotti.

Also, this week is the sixth edition of the annual European Mobility Week, under the theme ‘Streets For People’, that aims to prove that reclaiming road space for pedestrians and cyclists can serve to cut congestion and pollution without reducing people’s mobility. More than 1,500 cities will take part. Bucharest is one of them, although our mayor, Adrian Videanu, seems to think we have no problems with ‘road safety, congestion, pollution and accessibility’. We are quite an example.
Right!

This was one rumor I would like to be true. Actually, I did not find out about it until I saw this press release. At least we now know something about Videanu’s taste in reading.
