It’s better than no place becoming an ecotopia.
Of course, but which do you think would be the spark that ignites the rest?
Despite the bad news, it’s good to know that there’s still people out there that care and are actually doing something about it.

Okay so something that’s slowly dying in rural America is the presence of specialty stores and craftspeople. Before dollar general and Walmart killed most of it, there were separate/mom n’ pop bakeries, pharmacies, blacksmiths (we could modernize that concept with a technological repair person to fix broken or malfunctioning parts), and tractor/feed supplies. Some of these still exist in rural America obviously but they are declining. Bring back specialization and apprenticeship.
