  • I found those without much effort. I didn't say they were in the article. Just showing it's not necessarily theoretical which was your opinion. Calling something "bullshit" can come across as unnecessarily combative and you then just dismissed the article outright. Constructive would be to state why and what about it could be improved which is more appreciated. People are free to read for themselves.

  • Such as this? This article is about it being developed 3 years ago . Totally valid to question an article. Please keep comments constructive if possible.

  • I think you summed it up pretty well and that all sounds very accurate. There are enough green energy solutions out there that we shouldn't have to sacrifice all the things you mentioned. I'm not reading much in the ways it would be beneficial or necessary.

  • Yeah I thought it looked really cool. I'm glad you liked it. The photographer used the hipstamatic app which probably boosted the colors a bit. Images like this help to show the many possibilities we have in this in darker half of Solarpunk.

  • Inside seems like a good idea in that heat. I wasn't getting the most direct sunlight inside, 6 hours is recommended, so I was leaving it outside in the direct sun and I think that may have been too much as it would be in full bloom one day and then the flowers would droop not much later.

  • I can't comment on bird migration with any expertise but I can say that street light is considerably brighter and I can't really see these contributing to light pollution. The bioluminescence comes from an enzyme that exists in mushrooms and other organisms in nature fairly frequently already.

  • Mine ultimately didn't survive through last summer but it was worth the purchase. I'm sure in the right conditions they'll thrive so I'm tempted to get another. It doesn't look like they're in any stores near me but I assume the plants would be pretty healthy if you bought one at a florist.

  • They're fairly new and it's early in the season so maybe you'll be surprised one night. Depending on how much artificial light there is nearby like street lights they might be hard to notice and the could seem a little faint as they show up more in darkness. It would be a cool sight to see them light up a neighborhood once someone plants a bunch though.

  • These Petunias have been in circulation for over a year. The only difference is that you can buy them in-store as well as online now. They are not an invasive species but very common. I have heard of no problems as of yet and I think any issues would be extremely minor and putting some flowers out there is a net positive considering climate change and electric light pollution. I don't think we have much to worry about.
