I agree with what all has been said by everyone here but there is one element that we must remember: EVERYONE needs to be re-educated into the ways of the wild thing and those that cannot understand the necessity of environment, wildlife etc need psychotherapy URGENTLY!!! The government should make it compulsory - then people would understand the need for recycling, the need to use one's legs rather than one's wheels all the time and to appreciate the beauty of wildlife, wild places and the wild thing in one's heart clammering to get out.
You take from society that which you find useful and leave the rest behind. Most of what is produced these days is superfluous to requirement but if you find a use for an item such as an iPod (I own up, I have one but keep it aside for listening to when I am on the bus going to/from work) that is individual to you, then that is fine. The problem is that most of these gadgets divorce people from nature, from themselves and in the end do nothing to enhance our lives at all. Its a balance thing.
