  In Vienna, we actually import Australian species because of their strong resistance to heat. The very commonly used native buckeye trees have been eaten away at by pests for decades now, and I’m surprised they do not actually seem to die off, but they just stand there with brown leaves for most of the year.

  For real though?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Liquid Trees⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess the “problem” with trees is obvious: it takes decades for them to produce the desired cooling effect in urban areas. You plant a dozen young trees today, you can begin to reap the cooldown 10 years later at best. Also, they need a lot if water, and many of them just don’t make it - urban surroundings are just much hotter and more stressful (smog, salt…) then standing with other trees in a forest. I fail to see though how these artificial “trees” pesticide any kind of benefit at all.

  In Vienna, Austria, Europe, every tree removed has to be replaced with a new as per regulation

  I sort of used to have the same problem. You know, if you’re gonna add oat milk to your oatmeal, you might as well just use water. But, whatever the reason, it sites taste better with oat milk.

  So how effective was that? I think the Japanese population is still declining, isn’t it?

  I asked an AI to draw me a group friends celebrating a birthday. The result was all blond white dudes. Then I asked it to make a diverse group of friends instead. The result was all black women.

  Very similar to those who refer to women as “uterus-havers”. Pretty much the same.
