Everyone involved in the built environment, whether you are an Architect, Engineer, Town Planner, policy maker etc. consider the following: every time we lay a slab or build a road we are taking up a physical footprint. That footprint at some point in time was an ecosystem for flora and fauna and now will be destroyed. Biodiversity is eroding at a rapid pace however we can slow this pace and perhaps stop it. So when talking to your clients, designing, building, planning, consider how can you do it to create space for the natural environment to thrive on that site or zone. It may mean elevating the building off the ground, it may mean creating connections between buildings above the ground. It may mean creating a pedestrian city, it may mean creating green spaces on a facade, it may mean creating a new zoning regulation that says yes, this is residential zone but also a zone for re-wilding, or where a zone can be commercial but with the restriction that the current ecosystem may not be disturbed. Nothing is impossible, clever solutions exist and you could help to create them. Please comment ideas and thoughts and solutions. Please also consider sharing this message whenever you see a good piece of architecture, technological solution, or process that could aid an equitable existence between humans and nature.

@0:35 - We installed these deck tiles, however, after about a year, we've had to take them out. Problem ? Excessive mold growth under the tile. So much, we cold not keep up with cleaning it. So we've finally gave up. Good idea, but not for wet location, especially in warm climate.
@Anne Ritchie No insurance, we just took the tiles out and replaced them with flag stone. As far as joining your Law suit - sorry, we do not sue people. It is still a great product, just not for wet location in subtropical climate. Have a great day!

I installed those rubber tiles and when the sun hit them, they expand and buckle and became a tripping hazard in the first week. I have to take them out and put them in the garbage.
I have a question regarding the first item, i.e. Composite Floor Tiles. I have seen them being sold at IKEA stores. My concern is the hollow spaces under the wood in between the plastic substrate. When installed outdoors, is it not going to collect dust, dirt, insects, and specially mold and rot from rain and snow?
@@christopheralbert4009 Thanks for this great insight. My roofer told me that if new shingles are installed over old shingles on the roof (without removing the old shingles), mold builds up between the two layers.

Contrived / planned energy shortages being used to drive up energy prices are not legitimate reasons to switch to unreliable and far more expensive energy sources such as solar energy sustems.
Regarding the last item in this video, the German Universal Manhole Cover; firstly why is it called Manhole 😊 It's unnecessarily overcomplicated. Such fancy shmancy gadgets fail over time. One faulty triangle getting slightly raised will rip the underneath of a vehicle causing a disaster. For example, I hate those one-way spikes, they should be banned. I have seen dilapidated roads and warning signs with one-way spikes buried in dirt. My point is that such fancy ideas look great when new, but fail over passage of time.
Those tiles in the first video are not only utterly pointless. They're about £30 per 60CM^2, so the area covered in the video would've cost about £750... would cost less for the actual lumber that these shitty tiles are immitating.

Naught point, means zero point. Most Americans leave off the zero, and would just say “point 25” for “0.25” but some folks do say the zero. Non Americans use the word “naught” as opposed to “zero” for that, it’s linguistic root ties to the word “nothing”, if you are curious why.

The solar roofing tech was awesome
Only issue would be the use of water for cleaning, but if they built a rain collection system as in conjunction. Muwah, wonderful system.
@andrew_koala2974Spain gave them money for Morocco to build their solar plants, irrigation for their fields, etc.
That’s AWSOME! Keep up the amazing work!
That small area appears to be at least 10 x 10 tiles. 600 bucks to do that seems a bit steep, I don't know.
