Transhumanism has been started too. Stop justifying industry as a natural process.

the mud wasp build a little mud shelter, fills it with little insects and then lays an egg or multiple eggs. when the young emerges, it eats, then starts doing what its parents do.
humans build little shelters& big ones, it prepares for its young, not much differently, it's debatable.
we are earthlings, just like them. their inability to make machines work for them does not make us less earthlings.
Which one is degradeable? Plastic houses or a mud shelter?
Soil is my meter to decide.
The wasps you are talking about never try to reshape the congnition of their own kind or build a megamachine to enslave the rest.
they don't but we do and that makes us less of an earthling?
it doesn't.
soil is your meter? no one cares about your meter.
Off course. No one cares about it and this is the main problem.
But soil is the only metre of life on earth. Soil is the web of biosphere and architect of life. Your thoughts, values and civilization is not aware about soil but nature bats last. Break down is near.
define: natural
in this context or any. Just give me your definition.
Anything deals with soil and has not been rejected by it.
Industry as a system of machines is destroying soil, it does not deal with soil, not by itself, not by its outputs.
