"Filth"? I don't think anyone here has ever experienced the genuine "filth" of living in the past.
Maybe you what you meant to say is that you don't want any potential danger anywhere near you. That's called NIMBY, ("Not In My Back Yard") which is actually the topic of this thread.
It seems you are calling for austerity, or actually deprivation, but calling it "conservation". This is akin to calling for imposing a starvation diet and having the hubris to suggest it is a cure for famine...  |
I totally expected something like this from you.
I don't even need to say anything. Letting your statement hang there should be enough.
