Clean Air Day

First let me thank all of you for your kind thoughts and prayers for Kyla. Tomorrow is Clean Air Day with the idea of promoting the thought of choosing a form of transportation that is better for the environment.
So in light of that some new pieces of public art have been erected downtown.
This one sits in front of City Hall and encourages people to leave their car at home and take a bus to work.

[Sandy]

Interesting piece of art. I guess it's for getting the message across only--not for sitting on.

[Candace]

I know I would not be sitting on this bench! Great idea though!

[Dianna Coile]

It's unique, for sure!

[Taffy]

A wonderful initiative for the environment.

[Kerri]

Awesome shot

[Jane Anderson]

I love the things you show us about Edmonton. It has invested in infrastructure to make a beautiful and thoughtful city.

[Peter Grave]

Nice shot Brian although i think it would take a bit more than that to convince some to leave their cars at home !!

[Richard Hickey]

Cool picture.

[Tony]

Nicely captured and a sound concept.

[Bev]

Nice shot. The bench looks really fuzzy.

[Louise & Ken]

One can only hope it helps...team effort if you will!

[mervyn hobbs]

Nice clear photo.

[Howard Steele]

nice one

[Babs]

Nice piece of art. Looks as though it needs a bit of a shave.

[Colleen Culhane]

Good choice of picture to reflect what's happening.
But, gotta say, I think the artist missed the mark here. Unless it's National Don't Sit Down Day. lol

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Great shot and that sure is an interesting looking bench. Love it.

[Camille Bisson]

LOVE THIS! oh, how i wish we had public transportation! fav for your great shot and in support of this very important concept.

[Lynne Hart]

interesting bench, good scene.

[Nina Ganci]

great idea and very creative of them to do this. Love the fact that it is in front of a memorial with a wreath! Powerful

[Graham Thresher]

Super shot.

[Molly]

What a good idea. Nice shot.

[Pyrrhula]

A great capture of this nice bench. Great idea.

[Jane winfrey]

Interesting "green" bench lol good photo :)

[Lin]

Well spotted and captured.

[Myrna O'Hara]

grab a bike!!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I guess after taking the bus, the bench is encouraging us to take a walk!

@lhart It certainly is different

@ninaganci Nina the memorial is actually our cenotaph honouring war veterans. Not sure that they were thinking about that when they placed the bench there

[Karin Hirsch]

What a great idea to promote the Clean Air Day with pieces of public Art. The idea gets so much more attention then. Great shot
