IF WE LEARN ANYTHING ABOUT THESE HEATWAVES LET IT BE THAT WE NEED TO MAKE OUR CITIES GREENER. PLANT SOME FUCKING TREES. BUILD A PARK. WE NEED MORE GREEN SPACES.

Just started reading Earthlings, I am legitimately shaking and I’m not even a quarter of the way through. I’ll keep pushing but I might need to drop this book if it gets any more intense than what I just read.
Secure. Contain. Protect.
The V/H/S franchise is tackling the SCP Foundation with upcoming installment V/H/S: SCP.
The anthology film will be framed as “recovered field documentation, or video evidence gathered, redacted, and archived by the secretive organization."
France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot larger than 1,500 square meters.
The law took effect in July 2023. Large lots over 10,000 square meters must be 50 percent covered by solar canopies by July 2026. Smaller lots have until 2028.
Exemptions exist for lots with genuine technical or environmental constraints, and for lots already shaded by trees.
France didn't just issue a mandate and walk away. The 2024 Finance Law introduced a Green Industry Tax Credit covering 25 to 40 percent of eligible solar investment costs.
Small businesses largely won't be impacted by the law. It more targets shopping centers, supermarkets, stadiums, and large commercial lots, not Le P'tit Bistrot.
Critics said businesses would just get rid of their parking lots. Carrefour, France's largest supermarket chain, is actually enthusiastically installing solar canopies across 350 stores, covering 180,000 parking spaces. It's expected to generate 450 gigawatt hours of power annually, enough to run the stores themselves, and it's using the canopies as a selling point - shaded parking makes stores more attractive to customers.
The projected energy output is expected to be up to 11 gigawatts, equivalent to roughly 10 nuclear reactors, without using a single additional acre of land.
The US has approximately 800 million parking spaces, most of them uncovered asphalt baking in direct sunlight. Should we do this too?
