At one time it was workable solution to just toss sewage and garbage in the
street.
Think of the planet as an egg. It can support the embryo for a time, but the
food will be used up and the toxins will kill the embryo, unless it can break
out and find new resources.
Expand our horizons or die, it's one or the other.
