yes it does make for a great metaphor, it is how I read it and why I responded thus.
The way the world is, what I mean is, pollution of our air, water, food, etc. we have become a planet where the next step would be to have automatons, we used to be a species tied to the earth and our cultures now we have become a hot mess of "cordless" drones.
Some fixes require back tracking it seems. Some years back I began to become very interested in permaculture systems and design and I try to implement some of it in my own space (which currently seems to mean grass a bit longer than my neighbors might prefer and various gourds and squashes cover as much ground as possible). The general positive impacts is essentially less yard work, but more specifically, less water, less gas, no fertilizers, or pesticides, and definitely a lot of new interesting bugs. I very okay with that, bugs are awesome
Low tech, simple tech, pragmatic tech. Seeing solutions that already exist without needing to complicate things more.
