Liquid Trees
(lemmy.world)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
The roots destroy sewer systems etc too. There's a bike path I take to work where the pavement is all distorted by the roots, making it very unsafe, but I still prefer that the trees are there.
That's why you have to properly select the species that will be planted, there are many different species which have roots that won't cause this type of damage and you can most likely get by with native plants for better adaptability
