@NetzKaiser whatever your opinion on industry is, the place clearly went from one where you would want to live to one in which the only place for a person is a car or a narrow sidewalk and where of there are apartments, they are places for drug addicts or people getting a govt check

@hogo1 because Native American land was lush in its natural resources. Their impacts were nowhere near Europe's.

[premo0]

@hogo1 However, you are not following the larger premise. European society and culture has sparked globalization and in turn has affected the entire planet negatively. It just so happens to be that Europeans, a race of the human species Homo Sapien Sapiens, has caused such calamities to happen. Europeans migrated out of Europe into the "New World" because they had exhausted most of their resources. Well, hope that clears most things up

@hogo1 Oh, ok. Yes, that's exactly what I'm conveying here hogo1. Any civilization can reach the maximum sustainable yield of resources. Native Americans (Not Indians from India correct?) indeed have had their environmental impacts on their land and had suffered from them greatly. There are several other civilizations that have gone through societal collapse, like the Anasazi or Easter Islanders.
