Technology is great and all, but it can be so damaging to the Earth. Our once natural, beautiful planet is now just one big ball of computers. It's hard to explain, but I hope you know what I mean.
Look how crowded these cities are...they even have people living in rainforests! What will happen when the world can't supply enough water, food, fuel, etc, to all these people?!

Posted by mapscrapper (who call us gays and is a very traditional and cultural being) "Hong Kong - Busiest city , best skyline and one of the world's three best harbors, niche global city , economically center of asia" Things I don't agree: HK is the economic center of asia (Looks like Tokyo, Shanghai really have to step a side) Hong Kong has best skyline (One word: Bullshyt) HK is the busiest city (Ya right...) HK is one of the world's best three harbours (Amsterdam, Lushun, SG)
Ya right.... Then ... ( 4 weeks ago by greenw23)
Ya right.... Then why is Hong Kong loaning money from China? Since we are "gays" "culturally inferior"? And you are "economic center" of Asia

Got to love the simplicity and brilliance of the US cities. The grid system makes for the easiest big cities to navigate through. The three most impressive are Chicago, Phoenix and Las Vegas but most major US cities use the grid system to a large extent and are interrupted only by bodies of water and mountains. The first city shown in this video with the title is Chicago.
