Who could think to develope this scenic mountain range into an industrial complex. It wouldn’t be economical to establish utility and transportation infrastructure, let alone the private cost for each facility and the cost of exporting goods. It mkght be eligible for strip mining since you can pop the top and the shit falls right into the hopper while those mountain springs carry all the tailings away for you (see appalachia).
It is much easier to establish an industrial park in a level area, preferable near navigable water. Enter wetlands and low lying coastal forests. Avatar was dead on with this. They make for the most economical places to clear/drain, pave over and exploit. Distance to the port is a major factor in profit margins and long term savings can overcome development costs in shit areas (see New Orleans). Can’t stop the work.
The only reason there isn’t one already (I count farmland) is because it’s mountainous and too hard to get to. The last remaining old growth trees on the planet are still standing simply because they’re hard to get to.
Reminds me of the “Island Sanctuary” feature added to Final Fantasy XIV, where you were promised your very own tropical paradise to visit and decorate. Ended up being little else to do there other than build and manage factories.
You clearly don’t know a guy. I’m from Canada, rezoning(bad phone! rez not rezoning) smokes(with a status card) are just “tax free” so only like 14% less depending on what province you’re in.
Can still get the no name ziplock bag cartons for $8. Not that I’d say they’re actually worth that.
My wife buys clothes at us.shein.com. Think she found them living in the Philippines, they seem to have an Asian slant, and kept using them when she came here.
Unrelated tangent, but I would urge you to suggest to your wife that she shop at other places. Shein is among the worst companies on earth in terms of the scale of their pollution.
Additionally, “a documentary by the U.K.’s Channel 4 found that Shein employees were working 75-hour shifts with very little time off.”
In theory they could be used clothes that cost more initially, although in this case I feel like this isn’t the kind of clothes you just find at goodwill
