Agree completely. Pge is corrupt, and this’ll give them permission for shoddy maintenance of the grid.

The last photo in the article has some greens growing right next to the street. What do you all think of that? Any worries about pollution?

Damn I’m sorry. You captured the feeling beautifully

Call me dense—where is the sample?

Those projects both sound exciting to work on! What a fun field to be in.

And yeah, we’ve got a similar philosophy regarding things to engage with. I’m having trouble implementing it though 😬

I would love to hear about your work if you’re willing. I am so fascinated by the potential of robots in a solarpunk future.

Edited to add that I appreciate you knowing what fight is yours and what isn’t. It’s certainly a necessary skill for mental health and focus nowadays.

Buildings that grow? Can you explain what you mean? My imagination is going wild

My thoughts too!! As an author nurturing a seed for a solarpunk novel and who has recently found freedom, I teared up tbh!

Yeah, I’m with you that it’s tough to figure out. Good points, and I didn’t offer a solution because I don’t have one! Just… gah, I left reddit because the echo chamber/hive mind is destructive to intelligent conversation.

Online reputations sound nice in theory, but quickly fall apart in practice. It is essentially a social credit system Like China uses to control people. In a system like what you’re describing, people would probably ding someone that they simply didn’t agree with. That means someone with a controversial but perhaps well thought out and valid take would be booted. Thus, intelligent debates and discussions take a hit and then you have the Echo chamber of Reddit.
