or the vertical walls of skyscrapers, which are pretty hard to plant and safely adhere trees on. It's the same as this "green roof" or "green wall" thing going up fucking *everywhere,* except presumably easier to maintain (no roots, no pollinators, algae is pretty hardy and doesn't have many widespread pathogens), and it's probably more surface area and faster action for a given rectangle of wall because of all the smallscale filaments and pores and shit.

Australia cities genuinely have a reflectivity problem in summer.
The reflected sun light off of glass buildings that's angled incorrectly reflects into pedestrians.
Now imagine a white rode or foot path that's reflecting at an angle to the sun, into people's eyes amd faces, and whilst reflecting into glass on buildings that also reflects it back.

They already have superior solutions available. seeking out an inferior, but unique solution to a problem which has already been solved is a tipoff of mental illness, there has been a lot written about the craving for special snowflake status.

Ernest Jones was the first to construe extreme narcissism, which he called the "God-complex", as a character flaw. He described people with God-complex as being aloof, self-important, overconfident, auto-erotic, inaccessible, self-admiring, and exhibitionistic, with fantasies of omnipotence and omniscience. He observed that these people had a high need for uniqueness.

Remember that next time you see someone offering a solution in search of a problem and avoid putting the cart before the horse yourself.

Just make roads from concrete instead.

>> No.15316239

>>15316232
Concrete roads are absolute shit in regions with freeze-thaw cycles. And furthermore, they're massively more expensive than asphalt. Particularly repaving them, very expensive since you have to truck in new concrete instead of melting and relaying the asphalt that is already there.

The cost to replace all those roads with concrete cannot be justified by the municipalities which are responsible for their creation and upkeep.

>> No.15316273

>>15316230
>TAR white.
IIRC modern low-absorbtion pavements use lighter-colored gravel or tailings, mixed in with the petrochem. One big source is actually recycled asphalt millings, which bleaches to grey over time as road. That doesn't cost too much more or completely obliterate the mechanical properties. The reduction in heat island and thus required cooling would probably offset added cost a little too.

>> No.15316277

>>15316273
I'm pretty sure all asphalt bleaches light gray over time, although I'm not sure if it's truly bleaching or merely local dust/dirt/etc attaching to and impregnating the surface o the asphalt over time. Either way, only fresh asphalt roads are truly black.

>Concrete roads are absolute shit in regions with freeze-thaw cycles.
Why don't they use the Roman method for making self-healing concrete? It's been figured out for a little while now; they intentionally included bits of lime that weren't fully slaked so whenever microscopic cracks formed and water seeped in, the quicklime would basically turn in to more mortar and fill the crack.

>> No.15316288

>>15316278
>>Why don't they use the Roman method for making self-healing concrete?
Aka adding pozzolines like fly ash? Because it's expensive than regular concrete, which is already much more expensive than asphalt, and because it doesn't help as much as you think. Freeze thaw cycles still wreck it. Furthermore the apparent superiority of Roman concrete has a strong survivor bias. The Roman concrete you see is that which lasted. A lot of it didn't.

Trees also need servicing in populated areas by arborists. They also have the propensity to spread their roots into things like water mains and septic tanks. Algae tanks are interesting in concept, but I think densely populated city blocks with zero green space and ecological reserves for miles are more of a problem.

Then the gypsies salvage whats left and then football hooligans trash it, vandalise it.
A child park, this tank, a scate park, a phone recharging station, a art exhibit.. Like putting something into acid - the opressive slav atmosphere destroys it via attrition damage, until it dissolves into pure dust that gets into our eyes and makes us cry and gives us irreparable lung damage - and then people complain in confusion : why is our capital so dirty and polluted and drab and depressing??
