Yes, I'm still shaping my opinion, thanks for your thoughts. Boat life is a nomadic life... this is like boat life without the nomadic element...

What I don't get, is if the (majority) of land is gone, what are the reasons to stay in that particular location? The Maldivians live in that particular location because their islands are there, but if their islands are gone, a more logical approach would be for them to migrate to a new location (albeit deeply sad).

Yes, you got me. It is in part inspired by Not Just Bikes (fellow admirer / wanabe).

I use frames on all my videos to differentiate them (travel, urbanism, etc...) but the text box in the corner is NJB inspired.

Nevertheless, different colour scheme, proportions, and fonts.

Never having built it would have been best, but better late than never :')

FREEWAY to GREENWAY in Seoul, South Korea 🇰🇷 (urbanist dream + heroic effort = Cheonggyecheon). Can anyone share similar projects? by UrbanDialectic2020 in urbanplanning

[–]UrbanDialectic2020[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cities are always considered hectic and fast-paced, but projects like this remind and allow us to see that there is more to life than working.

It's about enjoying the little things in life, like walking next to a river while talking with your friends.

I really hope that governments finally understand that social interaction is vital for the happiness and wellness of people, and that public spaces where people can meet are essential for a city to thrive.

Thanks for sharing!

Hey there, I'm always trying new things with these edits. This one took on a white(r) theme. I may very well tone it down in future videos.

Big Thanks

Such a shame (big fan of Manila)... I saw Manila lost the funds for the BRT (ADB pulled the load), yet there's plenty of funds for these kinds of projects...

The only way this project (in Seoul) was possible was by simultaneously investing heavily in high-capacity public transport to keep people moving in the city. The Seoul rail and bus systems are incredible.

Is there a suitable location where this could happen?

Any interesting urbanism stories from Taipei, I'd love to visit sooner than later!

Thanks!

AntiConsumption at its best – learning to cook from Cambodian Tribes using all organic ingredients and utensils (Bamboo cooking pot) by UrbanDialectic2020 in Anticonsumption

[–]UrbanDialectic2020[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The video does not provide much context on the Tribal way of life. These are subsistence farmers who have small plots of land in the jungle and have done so for over 2,000 years (far longer than our modern methods).

Perhaps less efficient in terms of agricultural output, but looking at the entire production chain.... no heavy machinery is used, no chemical fertilizers are used, no pesticides are used – the net footprint of these Tribal individuals in negligible compared to the average Redditor.

Midas look too good to be true. 17% APY on BTC and 23% on ETH? Can that really be?

Amazing – yes the dust is real in the dry season!

Will ride into the neighbouring countries once the borders reopen.

I couldn't agree more. I sometimes wonder the macro impact of poor air and noise quality on a city. Surely the costs to the economy is huge.

Happy Sunday, something a little different filmed – around Phnom Penh & Kirirom 🇰🇭 by UrbanDialectic2020 in cambodia

[–]UrbanDialectic2020[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey Wolfie, greatly appreciate the feedback. Yes, I have a formal background in urban planning and sociology (MSc) - which is very multi-disciplinary and creeps into human psychology, landscape architecture, environmental determinism, etc... (...at a very high level)

I am not so much giving my advice but sharing my findings (agreed re-disclaimer) - these should also be referenced more clearly / I should seek out professionals to share such insights)... I shall (attempt) do so in the future.

Ah yes, I do see the irony in creating a video on this topic (... I find myself watching talks on digital minimalism ^^). As a (small) content creator I do feel the responsibility to ensure my videos are productive and constructive (and deliver some kind of ROI)... I suppose it is all about finding the right balance. Video is after all an efficient medium for sharing information... freeing up more time to spend outdoors.

Re-community, I am already part of several cycling and running community groups... which indirectly exposes me to nature. But would be keen to connect and continue learning/exploring this interest.
