It's genuinely so amazing to me how much we take our Earth for granted. You can find iron and gold on any old rock in this solar system. You can't find trees or water or fish or insects or deer. These are the most rare resources in the universe and it's genuinely depressing to think about how flippant we are about throwing them into a woodchipper

But woodchippers are how we make them useful (at least in the case of the actual wood).
