Yes....... again.

I believe that the "we" should be defined.

Taking into consideration that "we" relates to those of European descent, we
have invasively migrated into just about every corner of the indigenous
world do to our greed or demand for a more "suitable" environment. These
indigenous environments could support the native populations on their own
and through natural selection and evolution those peoples were getting by
just fine.... until more modern agriculture practices came into play
increasing yield and pleasure.... thus creating greed.

Through our own greed for new land "we" have moved into just about every
nook and cranny of the earth and, with the aid of modern oil driven machines
to make those places more like the "home" we have become accustomed to
living in, we are getting by just peachy.......

Along with domineering corporate agendas, corruption, oil, and advances in
"modern" medicine we have been able to out domineer, out produce, out
reproduce, and out live the competition for those lands..... destroying
everything in our path due to greed. So.... what do we do to solve the
problem?  Who retains the knowledge of those lands when the so called
"modern" conveniences run out? What right do we have to be there if we
cannot exist without the comforts of the outside world?

At which point do we begin prepare for the to overall panic?
