It's clearly a semantic argument - but there is a segment of the environmental community (often called the 'bright greens') that take the stance that we've already so drastically and universally affected the natural world that we must look to technological and social change to maintain a prosperous ecological system. Which is to say, no - there is no "wild" anymore.
