If you've ever flown over the midwest - the opposite of that would be wild. More like Yellowstone and less like corn fields.

Not to say you can't have some humans living there, but most of the space could be returned to nature, sans human civilization.

Yes. With peace on earth and no nuclear weapons while we're at it. I hope we can overcome our limitations to achieve that kind of future before something terrible happens because of our lack of foresight.
