As cities across America become more congested, people are facing increasingly time-consuming trips to and from work. Bird, an electric scooter sharing start-up, is aiming to solve the ‘last mile’ problem of public transport to encourage people to leave their cars at home and avoid the gridlock.

Beginning in Islington, Uber has launched its dockless bike-sharing scheme, Jump, in London. As people are seeking a wide variety of transit options to get them from A to B, bike-sharing schemes help with transport fluidity in cities.

Transport app Citymapper is launching a subscription service that will help people travel across London more easily. The service will consolidate what is a fairly complicated transport system – especially in terms of cost – and meet traveller expectations for getting from A to B as simply as possible.

Pollution masks may be commonplace in China, but now Westerners are increasingly looking to protect themselves against bad air quality, too. With 73% of Londoners worrying about air pollution, REN Flash Defence Mist is anti-pollution skincare that can ease their concerns when it comes to their skin.
