That's begging the question in a couple different ways, but who doesn't know these things? In what way isn't it apparent? What can be done about it now, while shit like this[1] is going on? I'm sure people are trying, but if "hurf durf shoulda built stuf. DUH" comes to mind, maybe keep it to oneself.
And to take your point, "disrespecting the environment," what do you suggest we do to counteract that in a way that would have changed the outcome in Houston? Who are the best people working in that space?

- StavrosK 9y agoWhat can be done about it now is what should have been done before and wasn't. Not for Houston, maybe, but for the next city. I don't accept that "yes, we should have planned better, but let's not talk about how we can prevent similar disasters now".
