I'm co-founder of CityFi, a strategic urban consultancy.

This is all my other stuff.

  Hard to see how this will scale, though it is the right idea.
• NASA names crews and dates for first U.S. commercial missions

  This could work.

  No splashing!
• NOAA PIFSC Ecological Acoustic Recorder
  Listening more closely to the things and events that affect coral reefs.
