In the past, we’ve always been able to expand to some frontier … we’ve rarely hit the limits of our space or territory. That's no longer the case right now.
As horrible as it is, Coronavirus is showing us what a clean earth might be: blue sky in Delhi, India. Animals returning in Germany. Quiet in our streets. Clean air in China.
