Transportation is the largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S. That’s why it’s been our mission for nearly 40 years to inspire, plan, and design mobility solutions that support sustainable communities.

Today we celebrate those for whom the current political climate is a desert, who face growing discrimination and violence, and whose courage to be themselves makes their hearts more astonishing than the loveliest hummingbird. #TransDayOfVisibility

We are lucky that despite the harms of shifting political winds, the truth of nature’s diversity, efficiency, and beauty persists. The world is full of unplain truths outside the limited minds of today’s politicians.

Try to deny a hummingbird and its astonishing heart racing at 1,200 beats per minute. Or that miracle of a sego lily, thriving in the desert, that saved the early Mormon pioneers when food was scarce.

We celebrate #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience at a time when scientific progress and gender equity are under threat. As a women-founded firm, we know firsthand the power of women leaders to create a sustainable future for all, and we’re staying in the fight to close the gender gap in STEM.

We have a long way to reach that level playing field, where all people have access to be judged by their merit, where all receive equal pay for their labor. Rather than pretending β€œcolorblindness,” opening our eyes to the uncomfortable parts of America’s past can help us chart a more just course.

This is not a battle that’s been won. According to the National Women’s Law Center, as of 2022, Black women were paid 69 cents for every dollar made by white, non-Hispanic men.

Throughout American history, progress toward racial justice has resulted from the collective action of people asserting their rights and the rights of their fellow Americans in the face of systemic discrimination. #BlackHistoryMonth

ASALH, the founders of #BlackHistoryMonth, notes that 2025 marks the 100-year anniversary of the creation of Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and Maids by organizer and activist A. Philip Randolph, which was the first Black union to receive a charter in the AFL (asalh.org/black-histor...).

Labor has often been the battleground where the struggle for access to opportunity and equal pay has confronted institutionalized racial and gender discrimination.

On this historic day, we remember a visionary leader, whose dream still guides us, inspires us, and heartens us in hard times. He reminds us, "We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." #MLK
