This area with nothing in it sounds like the oil spill “outside the environment” in the very excellent comedy skit “The Front Fell Off”. https://youtu.be/3m5qxZm_JqM

Edit: Linked to official channel. Thank you for the correction.

Might be nice to link to the official Clarke and Dawe channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3m5qxZm_JqM ) rather than some knock off reupload. RIP John Clarke.
Not really. We already mine on land that covers only 30% of earth, I would think that would have a much bigger impact. Second, and oil spill spreads far and wide contaminating a vast area. All I am saying is mining can in theory be contained to a much smaller area.
