Oh my Thor, I live in a rural county, but we have a gigantic construction boom going on here, it is quickly not looking rural anymore. There is so much deforestation going on here. Our species cant keep doing that at the pace we are.
My town has doubled in population since we moved here in 2006. This used to be country. There was a road that I drove to get to the office once a week that was called the S-Curve. It was one of the prettiest places left. The road was so tightly tree-lined that it was like driving through a tunnel. There was often a herd of cattle near the end of it grazing that were unlike any I had seen before...two colors...one big white band all the way around them like a belt. It was my favorite part of the drive. Of course, they closed it recently, are removing most of the trees and straightening and widening it. Bastards. The local Facebook pages are always lit up with people fussing about the demolition of that beautiful little stretch of road.
