Idk. Destroying peach trees in the desert makes sense in some ways.
Well, there a lot of places that are populated only because humanity had access to monstrous amounts of energy and power. AKA fossil fuels.
It's like that map that showed where people moved after electricity and AC was widespread.
Those areas may represent a kind of deficit that gets harder to overcome.
Pretty much. There will be significant changes in our species' living arrangements in the coming decades.
