Kevin FreitasPermeable sidewalks #FTW! It’s drenching rain in #WestSeattle this morning and look at the difference between these two surfaces. Better for walking and better for the water table!
Elias Mårtenson@KevinFreitas For pavements they may be a good choice (I'm not a materials engineer). But they are unfortunately not suitable everywhere. They are much less resilient compared to regular asphalt.
@loke Feel like I’ve read there are different mixes for different climates. Regardless, one piece of the climate puzzle.
@KevinFreitas It's an amazing invention indeed. I don't think I've ever seen it in real life, but the videos I've seen of it looks almost magic.
I'm not sure I agree that it's a positive thing for the climate though. It requires more maintenance (needs to be repaved more often). What climate angle are you considering?
