Editor´s letter [Opinion Editorial]

AH, DOESN´T it look lovely? Would you like to live in this month´s cover? On the surface it looks idyllic, but dig a little deeper and we find this utopia is not as it seems; there´s something wrong in paradise. Where are the electric-vehicle charging points? That ice cream van is charming but it looks very polluting and it´s partly responsible for the rise of childhood asthma in the area. It´s also contributing to the rise in childhood obesity, which is exacerbated by the lack of a local play area where the children could get some exercise. As you can see, it was replaced by a very pretty but ultimately useless fountain. And the man with the lawnmower is so obsessed with his perfect lawn he won´t even let his own children play on it.
