The Gunas of Gardi Sugdub are the first of 63 communities along Panama’s Caribbean and Pacific coasts that government officials and scientists expect to be forced to relocate by rising sea levels in the coming decades.
Skimming through the photos, they completely neglected to connect any of the sidewalks in the new dystopian refugee village. Whole community went from 100% car free to 100% car-reliant.
The suburban/inner city project camp was definitely a stark contrast to the village that sprouted up on that tiny island. At least they’re offering them homes but it also seems like it’ll take a lot of adjustment to adapt to a new life of having to worry about having a greener lawn than the neighbors and what new fast-casual restaurant is opening in the nearby stripmall.

How dare they build homes for refugees with roads connected to them!?
These poor people don’t even know about vehicles!
And they certainly can’t walk across the inexplicably busy road filled with vehicles they don’t have!
