RE: You Can Keep Fighting Forever but Spare Greenery for Common men
I read a lot, and I particularly enjoy science fiction... Have you ever noticed that in most of the visions of the future described, there is neither anything that corresponds to our idea of nature (forests, meadows, heathland,...) nor any pets?
To be honest, I find this infrastructural sterility highly plausible: everything will be subordinated to the necessity of producing sufficient nutrients for the (over)population. Our history as a species shows that we will choose the worst possible path to achieve this...
Hehe, you're spot on! I feel the same that sci-fi futures strip away nature and pets, and think about sterile mega structures made up for survival.
That's the reason I am no fan of Blade Runner's rain-slicked sprawl or The Matrix's simulated voids where there is no wild forests, which make farms churning out calories for billions. You talk about pets which was probably now luxuries for ouroverpopulation.
These creatures are probably worst than meadows that are being replaced by endless infrastructure. And this will go on, greenery will further reduce by different ways, war is one of them.
Welcome to the greedy world that thinks about own self.
