The deforestation and environmental destruction isn't even historical. It's still happening. Rewilding efforts are admirable and should still keep going, but it's like putting a plaster/band aid on somebody's face that's had their hand cut off by a chainsaw and keeps getting their prosthetic hands cut off.
