Comment on Will SNW (or any future Trek) Retcon Mojave, California?

  I could understand a few across the city, but I’d say 50 miles of parkland around a city is a little excessive.

  You could also probably at least partially pull off “lush” with more native species, which they don’t seem to do.

  Additionally, I imagine there’s some people still enjoying desert off-roading or a newer equivalent in the 23rd and 24th century (probably with regulations, of course).

  Granted, I’m a bit biased, considering I live in the Southwest and am a fan of some of the more beautiful deserts. I do hate the climate change-induced annual shattering of heat records, though. Never fun when it’s 110s out, especially when you have to walk to classes… No

    Yeah I don’t think 50 miles of parkland makes sense, but even desert lovers would rather picnic on grass than sand.
