Urban Planet is a daily roundup of blogs from around the world dealing specifically with urban environments. We’ll be on the lookout for websites outside the country that approach themes related to urban experiences and issues.

In Vancouver, there is an effort afoot to make the impacts of climate change more visible. Artists Rhonda Weppler and Trevor Mahovsky have installed their piece, ‘A False Creek’, which shows projected changes in sea level over the coming years on the legs of the Cambie Street Bridge.
