>>18478350By people with souls>>18478418>If you don't focus on the ugly concrete eyesore its not as bad

the normans cleared out enormous areas of land, the only saxons permitted were lumberjacks and the foresters who monitored their work and looked out for poachers, the most notable of these being sherwood forest
>>18478350Why conquer nature when you could conquer men instead? To see their cities decay into dust and where once women sang upon the river only ghosts remain?
>>18478506>conquer men instead

>>18478506Because most of this board can't throw a straight punch or a solid hook. Hence why they live vicariously through some faggot 100 years ago who could.
>>18478350because we came to learn that we are dependent on nature and if the ecological equilibrium collapse so does we
>>18478830I am glad the Egyptians didn't get too dependent on their local environment, and shaped the environment to their will.If every human being disappeared tomorrow, some of the last signs of human existence on Earth will be the Pyramids, which will last for millions of years
>>18478874the Egyptians were extremely dependent on the local environment and they did not shape it to their will, as they were incapable of doing thatalso the Pyramids didn't cause any great environment impact

It's basically a white man's thing, thinking for the future and protecting your habitate so you can sustain it. Is basically a white man trait.
>>18478350>Where did Conservation come from?Comes in two flavors. Either>"oh no we shot up all the animals here"Or>"we need a way to seize land from people while coming up with a PR friendly way to do it."Both are tied to each other by the hip.

The initial style of conservation was because people kept on killing animals near farmland or hunting animals for status like trophy hunting to the point animal populations faced massive shocks.
