More good news for the shortest day
In July Helsinki marked an entire year without a single traffic death. The Finnish capital, which has a population of 690,000, achieved the feat through lower speed limits, improved street design and investing in pedestrian and cycling infrastructure. More than half of Helsinki’s streets have a speed limit of 30km/h (18-19mph) and roads have been narrowed with trees.

Aus dem Newsletter von „Pro Asyl“:
„Liebe Freundinnen und Freunde,
kurz vor Weihnachten haben wir noch einmal gute Nachrichten. Nach Monaten des Bangens konnte heute endlich 151 besonders Schutzbedürftige aus Südsudan, Kongo, Somalia und Äthiopien ankommen.
