Human Limitation V Imagination

Sailboats horses and carts and canal transport Whale oil lighting and candles, salt to preserve Meat, limited sanitation and available running Water, all are part of a formerly more static society ' Which kept people in their national boundries.' The emphasis seems to be on returning the World to a typology of the above.? This being Part of ( green agendas ) wordwide.? Why then? Facilitate mass movements of Humanity across borders.? If its more Desirable for a worldwude static existence? That will be inherent in any return to above Practices.' Is it just ideas.? That some people have cooked Up after obtaining a doctorate, or other credentials To get a million plus payment from a slush fund.? With no real plan on how to live this out.? I am myself quite prepared to live with limited Technology..Yet it involves more effort, which Would keep humans fitter.' A balance can be struck But I dont see any cohesive drive.? I see ( a i ) and A move to even more tech, and so called outsourcing More desire for matterial things more waste much less Recycling than from the 1920s to the 1980s am I Alone in these observations? I welcome any comments.'
