The micro-revolution within cities created completely different spaces and a long-term divide between rural and urban worlds, but in many senses cities were like time-traveling microcosms of the future we are now in: very few people work the land, and energy comes from both farmer-produced and fossil fuel sources.

“those cities were like sort of time-traveling microcosms of the future that we're in now. The future we're in now is one where very few of us work the land at all and we're actually all in the business of expending energy, acquired one, by farmers in the land outside but also two, energy that we plucked out of the ground in the form of fossil fuels”
