Seems like this topic has hit a nerve... many of us apparently enjoy fantasy gaming for what it provides in the way of escape, in re being able to visit a world that is as it SHOULD be rather than the mundane one we have to live in day to day.
And it seems one doesn't have to be a "greeny" to appreciate the ecological mess that we are currently facing - too bad we didn't listen to the greenies about thirty or forty years ago.
In any event, there is something you can do about the general decline of things. Start your own community. Get together with some like-minded people and start working towards creating the kind of world you'd like to live in. My wife and I and a few other couples are working towards buying a 100+ acre parcel and developing a sustaining community. It's not easy, but it's worth it.
