        Americans don’t know what’s good for them. You gotta force them to do good things and then they’ll change their mind. Yeah, it’s authoritarian. animengels

            honestly, maybe im old as fuck, but a very short walk outside even in extreme heat feels great on my bones and is refreshing.

            Honestly I’m a large guy, I totally get it. That’s what skybridges and underground cities are for!

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_City,_Montreal

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minneapolis_Skyway_System

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plus_15

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dallas_Pedestrian_Network

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Houston_tunnel_system

            And many many more! Sure they can be a little sterile and many are public-private partnerships disgost but they can be a great tool in fighting some of the effects of climate change I think.

      yeah obviously they should build the cities shitty and then later maybe consider rebuilding them good but actually do nothing because nimbys would complain
