We're working on 7-8billion people on this tiny little rock. We all need to be living in dense urban setups. This entitlement most of us have is ridiculous. We are straight up ruining this planet with our endless suburbs and desire to own a chunk of wilderness. As if our own enjoyment and personal appreciation is a virtue worth the destruction we wreak with our presence.
Al Gore said it best, it's an inconvenient truth.
Just because it's the most efficient way for all of us to live doesn't mean it's good for us. There are too many humans for this planet to support. We need to reduce the population ethically. Stop having kids.
