Society
Urban society, in particular, is a completely unreal world. It's "anti-life".
Recycling, "being Green", building some earthen ("cob") kiosk in the neighborhood ... these things are like hobbies, rather than lifestyles. We do them, but then go right back to our "normal" behaviors and attitudes. Riding bikes, driving "hybrid" vehicles, community or backyard gardens are all band-aids. We have lost ourselves. We live in "boxes". We use boxes (gasoline-powered vehicles) to go from place to place. We work in boxes. We wear artificial barriers (thick-soled shoes) that keep us from contacting the ground. We shop in "stores" that hermetically seal our mass-produced, largely artificial and nutrient-deficient food.
