Yet it lets one use steam engines? One of the dirtiest combustion
engines around? And as for destructive tech.... do you realize how CLEAN
tech can be?
Have you ever looked into a breeder reactor? I could go on about
those, and nuclear reprocessing plants (which we shut down in the US to
keep weapons grade material away from terrorists even though with them we
could cut our nuclear waste down to 2-3% by volume of what it is today,
and that 2-3% waste is still useable by breeder reactors as fuel....)
See? I was just bare touching the tip of one of the most widely
accepted `dirty' technologies. Yet it really isn't. It isn't technology
that is dirty anymore, it is the people.
So lets look at what people can do in a dead zone. They can use
steam engines... dirty tech, build dams... everyone knows how much they
can mess up the ecosystem of an area... Need I go on? Dead Zones simply
aren't nature's way of cleaning up. If it was - it wouldn't be tech that
wouldn't work - it would have throw the people out.
