It stems from people having a shit idea of how much space there is in the world, too. Yes, too much of our infrastructure is car centric, but holy fuck buddy there’s a lot of land out there that doesn’t have anything on it right now.
Unused land isn't useless land. Every bit of land, grass, tree, rock currently has a place and destroying/changing it has consequences. We can't just assume that unused (by humans) land is usable (by humans) land, like white settlers have a habit to do
Nah, you’re just not understanding the scales we’re talking about. That’s ok, most people can’t wrap their heads around it.
