Urban versus rural

The friction is so obvious. So many in cities have their needs, and so do those in rural areas. The two priorities often clash.

For example in the USA, people need energy to have their life style. But for those in NYC to expect those in Montana to let their state get covered over by solar panels is a silly idea. Go figure. And this all assumes the “grid” will help all this.

Now move to China, which I think is still ¾ rural. How long will the rural people tolerate birth defects from all the ecological damage being done these days in this part of the earth. Everyone loves their country, to a point.

Now think 100 years into the future. Here in the USA we rural type fellows (formally from Atlanta) have other objectives. And all I want to do is grow grass in the front yard. And I am working on it, in my way, of course.
