@BalooUriza Tulsa launched Ideas for Change after Tulsa Decides already did the thing. Your guess is as good as mine if anything will happen with the proposals. First guess, it’s a convenient place to punt people to so City Hall doesn’t have to do anything, like change.org in general.
Ideas for Change in Tulsa
Share ideas for change in your community, and vote on the ideas of others
Ideas for Change (www.ideasforchange.org)
Tulsa Decides
A participatory budgeting pilot. It's your money, you decide.

@jollyrogue Looks like Tulsa Decides is the city website and IfC is the change.org one

> i really don't. i'm not the one making the claim, i'm just reporting that others have made it credibly.
The way you made the initial claim didn't state "someone else made this claim and I'm echoing that, make of that what you will". You stated it as fact so yes, you *do* need to explain it if it's unclear to your interlocutor how it works.@reiddragon @cmconseils i'm not doing your homework for you, mate. i don't owe you anything.

@fishidwardrobe @cmconseils maybe don't get involved in a conversation if right after you decide you don't feel like actually engaging

@BalooUriza IfC is the official one, and it’s a branded instance of change.org.
Tulsa Decides is a citizen group unaffiliated with the city.

@fahrni @DebErupts @cmconseils
And then you get the whiners here that complain that they took out 5 parking spaces to put them in over one of the universities in their employee lot.Oh no! Carpool? Take the bus? The bus line goes right past the school.
E: I swear I speak English. I have no idea what’s going on in the first paragraph.
️@pomegranate_stew @fahrni @cmconseils You can't please everyone. And if farmers want to utilize solar or lease their land for solar, it's their right. Farmers are hurting due to Trump tariffs and policies.

@cmconseils Et bien disons que les voitures sont plus présentes dans les villes que dans les campagnes... Et qu'avec l'augmentation du nombre de voitures électriques il est peut être plus judicieux de créer de l'électricité au moment où les voitures sont stationnées, pour permettre la recharge. Directement du producteur au consommateur, en générant moins de câbles et de structures d'acheminement...

@cmconseils And our waterways! (at least the smaller ones; the Mississippi or Thames might be a heavier lift than the benefits warrant)

@cmconseils this is the kind of thing I hate so much... not that its wrong. Yes cover our car parks. Better something than nothing. But like... cover our roofs maybe. Delete cars. Make walkable cities with good public transportation that uses underground tunnels to avoid asphalt heat soaking at all, increase transport efficiency and allow more space for humans to spread out and enjoy our natural environment ; _ ;
Im not mad at the people who want to fix things
I just wish we were allowed (by capitalism) to dream bigger.
I wish everything wasn't so grindingly incremental.
This is not me blaming people for making realistic demands of doing anything wrong. Its just a deep sadness that we are so incredibly wounded, that its the best we can realistically ask for. -

@cmconseils car parking adjacent to high voltage substations is rather limited, and where they are only moderately separated the route to run a substantial cable tends to be through shops, offices, homes, and roads. Rather than across a field or three.
The shade is certainly welcome, eg in France, (and the shelter from rain in England) but the production of electricity is more in scale with the shops and light industry than the Grid.
Meanwhile, our crops are dried out and appreciate shelter.
@Photo55 @cmconseils Car parking is usually adjacent to sites where there is a large consumption of electricity -- office buildings, shopping malls, stadiums, commuter rail stations. Which are unsurprisingly also places where grid connections are in the multi-megawatt range.
My old office building (a 140 year old brick-and-beam structure) had a 5MW connection to the grid, but generally used far less (2-3MW), except on the coldest winter days when all of the electric heaters were on. The rest of the time they would have the capacity to either offset their usage or feed back several MW of power with no changes to the local grid.
