Village based agrarian societies existed for tens if not hundreds of thousands of years, then a couple of hundred years ago or so, instead of having small local skirmishes, the bankers and industrialists invented industrial wars which were very profitable to them, causing massive and irreversible environmental damage.
From at least the Nepoleanic wars onwards, bankers supporting industrialists have manipulated societies, and governments, to maintain their profitability and control with no regard for the planet's natural environments, or the stable enduring traditional agrarian societies which cared for the natural environments that they depended on.
After the wars ended, the weapons industries were converted to make consumer products, continuing to cause massive and irreversible environmental damage. Advertising created a market for these previously un-needed products.
Now chemicals, plastics, and landfill waste dumps full of consumer products are destroying nature, killing off the biodiversity we, and the other animals on this planet need to stay healthy and alive.
We didn't need most of this pollution creating junk 100 years ago.
Now the world economy is reliant on people having dead end jobs, to get money, to buy stuff they don't really need, to keep the economies going, to maintain / create new dead end jobs, causing more problems. It is madness, and a race to catastrophy; all so you can have the latest television, game, or mobile phone etc.
A person growing their own food to survive on their own land will look after their land and soil and water. A corporation does whatever it can get away with to maintain profitability, with no regard or concern for the resources they use or the mess they leave behind, unless it impacts on its bottom line.
We can individually make a stand and not purchase pollution creating products. Use natural fibres which don't create micro plastics, instead of synthetics, as much as possible. Use string, bags instead of plastic bags. Use any technology until it is rendered unuseable, then recycle it, instead of getting the latest version just because you can. Get a job not for just the money, but also its moral values and environmental impact. Understand the difference between growth sustainability, profit sustainability, and environmental sustainability. Your hobbies, pass times, and recreation can make a difference. Anything with motors, engines, fuels, batteries, and disposable components is damaging your world, so try downgrading to less polluting and less expensive fun; lose the drag racer or speed boat, and try cycling or hiking; build toys from wood again instead of plastic; if it needs batteries, leave it on the shelf; pots and pans work well, forget the bread maker, rice boiler, and all those other kitchen gadgets which go to landfill after the warranty expires. Basically - Don't buy garbage.
A network of complementary village systems will be more people and nature friendly than tower blocks and massive factories. People will know eachother, keeping crime to a minimum. People will have to live where their garbage is produced and dealt with - no more trucking it interstate, or dumping at sea.
Don't be blackmailed by governments and corporations going on about jobs and job losses; they don't care about you or your jobs, only the revenue they create. There is no top down leadership because they are all addicted to greed and control, we have to save ourselves and the planet from the bottom up, and drag those bankers and industrialists kicking and screaming, back to planet death reality. If you don't purchase, then they don't profit. Then they might learn.

Don't just hole up in the house, dig holes in the garden and lawns, plant fruit trees and food crops, make useful handicrafts from natural materials, network with neighbours to fill gaps in the local supply of goods and services.
Instead of going to the mall, go to the local producer's cooperative. Consumers have the power of the $$$, to deny profit to the unworthy, and send it to the needy, your local community.

I suppose one would have to become part of the collective ..the Borg or a colony of leaf cutter ants,yea like that type of unity could ever exist when some are lucky enough to find their own arse in order to wipe it...and in my opinion no Blondey I would not let you rule because the next thing you know you would get the men thinking about tear away panties or some chit and that would be the end of that...
