This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

What's the point of water if you can't chill by the water

I think there should be some shading structures around the walkway.

Maybe some self-building ones that also act as a carbon sink.

Har har, what I meant was having a shaded overhead thing every couple of yards right along the actual walkway next to the water.

Assuming its mostly concrete having shading could help break up heat absorption and help reduce heat radiation.

Pretty sure they are referring to trees here.

The main walkways and the bike lane are actually located in the shade provided by the line of trees.
