▲ 5 r/Tucson
Who thinks a Taco Bell, a Panda Express, a whattaburger and a car wash being built all at the same time on Ajo and Kinney is actually a good and environmentally stable idea?
Corporations, obviously.
But do the people of Tucson actually support this and want this? We are heading towards a water crisis (if we are not already in the full trenches of one).
Why is Tucson hellbent on becoming Phoenix? Why do we keep spreading out into the Sonoran desert? Why are we destroying what actually makes Tucson such a unique and wonderful place to be?
I just don’t understand the reasoning behind any of the massive and rapid spread. When is a hard line going to be drawn between giving ‘the people what they want’ (fast food conglomerates bumped up to gorgeous desert landscapes?) and what is actually sustainable in the desert long term?
