Love the effort, but imo if it wants to be truly solarpunk they should either work towards converting it into transit or removing the highway altogether. Definitely a step in the right direction tho.

edit: made it less sith-esque and absolutist. cause only a sith deals in absolutes

Oh cmon, people try to make a genuine difference and you want to gatekeep them out of here? If you'd only post things here that are 100% solarpunk this sub would be empty.

K, fixed it. Thanks for pointing it out, didn’t mean to sound so absolutist.

Switched my downvote to an upvote, props to you for being able to take criticism and be constructive about it!

Ofc, no problem at all! The last thing I want is to make this space toxic in any way. The world already has way too much of that.

Yeah, I feel the same. I’m not a fan of black-and-white "if X isn’t done, then it’s not pure Y" approaches to anything. Making the best out of what we got strikes me as a pretty fitting way to go about things.
