    I love how she took the analogy of that small crack she made bigger as a child, and compared it to this 'bigger crack' she'd created in the form of these green spaces. To others, the breaking of the cement to free a little plant might seem destructive and to some, the creation of a green space might seem like pointless beautification, but from a different perspective- her perspective- it's connecting and compromising on a shared space between humanity and nature for the greater good of both. Very well done. Props to her for her ingenuity and will to push for a better future for her city.

    This is literally how sustainability is created with innovative ideas centralising a simple principle. I dream to be a writer as a surveying student...... but when climate calls, waterlogged pages aren't fun. I'm going to try my best to do that when I have a job or be elected as whatever and hold power.

    My house was flooded too. No need to blame climate change, but the poor flooding protection management. Chula University gave a free space to build a park, and also build commercial complex to get revenue. All MBK Siam and all shopping store rent land from Chula U. Moreover they build the brand new condominium along side that park. Your park is not only fulfilled the flooding protection but also business approach.

    The cost of planning/demolition/rebuilding/renovations/modifications... have to be balanced with the lost of productivity-efficiency/opportunities/... during the transition.
    The level of air-pollution/water-pollution/gamma-radioactivity-pollution/logistical-inflation/financial-sabotage/infrastructure-damage/cross-pollution/sabotage-modification devices-effort/... are ludicrous for each item, similar to the airline-industry. Every item cannot pay for itself in terms of losses.
    The baseline of $usd+1t in savings and yearly GDP of $usd+500b and fully built high-tech baseline with knowledge-economy and service-industry (past decades of political propaganda) prepatory works, must be factored into new-world-order.
    The losses during transition and the opportunities lost to other economies and the defence maintenance-running costs thereafter are, similar, per item, cannot pay for itself.
    A few years ago, some people observed, you might as well work for money instead of robbing the world(nothing much left to rob). When you factored in all these and the results-potential, you might as well build a new bangkok elsewhere. It will be at least 100 times cheaper than to be stubborn about being evil.

      Wind and water shifting is progressive-regressive step by step. Quickest town planning is 1km-sq per 2-years. Observe changes and effects, plan the next many 1km-sq around it. Not the millennial ideology of 1-know-it-all supercomputer.
