Comment on A golf course eight miles away from the hottest point on the entire planet.
SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 2 months agoWouldn’t something like a botanical garden bring even a more diverse range of people therefore more of three issues you have with?
If anything a golf course limits the people there while providing this oasis that’s far more protected.

I never mentioned a botanical garden. The fact is that there are fewer than 15,000 people in that whole county, and almost 90% of the people who live in that town have jobs in accommodations, food service, or retail. The area was a curiosity, and then capitalism got a hold of it.

You said surely there are better uses, there are, but wouldn’t they bring in more traffic conversely though? No matter what you do, it would be a tourist destination almost definitely. So why not do something to effectively limit the the people that would go there, while also being a pseudo reserve.
