Today i stumbled upon a thread where... once again... people complain about highsec carebearing, no risk vs reward, the evil nature of people in eve, etc. etc.
Now, deep space exploration/traveling, hell, even colonization become more and more of a reality as we progress in real life.
I would like this thread to be about what the eve community expects if we... lets say, in 50 years have started colonizing space.
Will we be littering space with our trash? Depleting natural resources as we currently do on our planet? Will we be spending billions on building war machines to blow each other up for personal profit and gain? Or perhaps we have clasped hands together to fight mutual alien foes instead that threaten human race on a cosmic level?
If we take EVE as reference... then perhaps we need to worry? Or will we be fine and good little carebears?
Looking forward to the eve community's view.

"...Asking about trash in space or depleting resources in space means that you have no idea of just how big space is..." - stoicfaux
"...The earths Orbit is NOT full of Garbage.Space is huge and we aren not even close of filling it up.The problem si that every piece of metal larger than 1 cm can be devastating when its flying with great speed orbiting.Due to inefficient mechanical parts/lack of good design during the Space Race, there are lots of them up there that might be lethal for our crude spaceships if they hit..." - Ghost of Truth
The point i tried to make gentlemen... is on a different level. See, in my opinion, polluting space, like we do our planet, has got nothing to do with the SIZE of space and the impact the littering will have because of that. It's about the mere vulgar act of actually doing it and thinking it is OK to do it.
Your arguments are logical and sound from a certain perspective... But this perspective is exactly what makes us **** up over and over again.
We can definately **** planets of their resources. The question is how long it will take us. Also in this case, the argument or excuse that their is millions of planets doesn't justify the single act of destroying even one.
It's NOT ok to dump your trash in our mutual surroundings, NO matter how big it is. No matter if it doesn't pose a safety threat to us. We do not have that right.
@stoicfaux. I certainly have an idea how big space is. But even one can of coke jettisoned out of an airlock for me points towards an utter lack of respect to our environment. On earth AND in space.

I for one look forward to the day we spread our metaphorical wings and start spreading through the Galaxy. Not sure how the Galaxy might feel about that prospect however.
Euh, why moved to out of pod?
rule 2 out of pod forum:
2. Unlike all other forums on the website, all posts here do not have to be related to EVE. In fact, they should not be related to EVE. The purpose of this forum is for all posts not related to EVE.
How is this thread NOT related to EVE? I ask to take EVE as reference in the original question and form an opinion on how we will behave in space BASED on EVE... This has got nothing to do with naming your cat and everything to do with EVE.
