People who have had the pleasure or displeasure of talking to me know I'm a dreamer. Being a dreamer I imagine many scenes in my mind of metropolitan areas where trees, artificial ponds and man-made forests permeate.

Small rural agricultural regions across the world that benefit and contribute to reforestation and afforestation. Regions like the Middle East and North/East/NE Africa where thousands of years of uncontrolled overgrazing/overfarming has led to desertification.

I'm not a hippie or anarchist who wants to return to a hunter-gatherer state or live in isolated, ethno-villages. I embrace urbanization of certain areas and technological advancement. I want to see humans reach an advanced technological state with a surplus of resources. I am a transhumanist and a technophile, but I'm also an environmentalist and naturalist.

That's my major dilemma...
