Technology has become our habitus. We no longer learn to dwell in nature we create our own islands away from nature. In Ecology of Eden we called this our tower away from the mountain. The problem with this is that we have depleted nature from where we live. Instead of finding some sort of balance we build up cities and push the mountain away. The problem that I see with this is, will we ever stop building our towers? If we don’t then we will continue to push the mountain away until there is no where to put it. If we do decide we have to stop, where and when do we stop?
