The social aspect is everything. If I didn't know anyone playing or make any online buddies there would be no hook to the game. It would be just grinding for the sake of grinding.

If we truly care about nature then Brazil should be made one of the most politically and economically stable countries in the world by the powers of the world. If that seems like too much effort to give up our own resources to protect the e

Your mixing logic between the issue of a "one world" and a solution that lays in the conceptual boundaries of nationhood. A world green police sounds great (better than a world oil reserve police atleast) but that requires a world

Who says any human should "own" the oil in the ground or the ground itself? We can't champion private ownership while denying private ownership to others. Especially when you have no control over said land. It's cliche t
