		<description>Ah, Ms. Smith,

As always, your insights inspire and encourage one to look at the world in a light not often embraced by traditional sapiens.

Sustainable industry is an interesting goal, I will admit - however, I would think there would be certain casualties associated with abandoning the near-global approach to industry and production that has been adopted by our dear short-minded forefathers.

I suppose the question our generation is ultimately going to be faced with is whether we would prefer to advance in a society that has to fight for its collective life, or whether we would rather live in a society that has to fight for its collective advancement.

The outcome of that decision might fall prey to the same trap that has hit dozens of generations prior though - self-interest and personal benefit are far more seductive than the idea that your grandchildren will live a better life, don&#039;t you think?</description>
