Jeanne Rudbeck says no to nature:

Nature provides no benches for resting on when you’re ready to collapse after hours of tramping about in a semi-crouch to find 12 wild strawberries.

Nature does not provide running hot water. Country life means preserving the breakfast dishwater as though it’s liquid gold. You go to the stream to rinse off your dirty lunch dishes in order not to contaminate the breakfast dishwater.

Nature does, however, provide pollen that makes you sneeze and bugs that make you itch.

Worst of all, in Nature you can’t get a latte.

I don’t care much for lattes, but I get Ms Rudbecks’s point. I like the urban landscape, too. Not that I mind spend a few hours in nature once in a while, but I prefer to spend my time in the city among human beings.
