Despite what you might think of Skynyrd, they cover this topic in a relatable way. Arcade Fire also covers it kind of. Sorry for the links but I'm a huge music nerd.

Around here, sprawl is a major issue. We have some of the most fertile soils in the world, and we pave over them without regard. It's abhorrent. I don't make the 'most fertile soils' comment lightly - this is my area of expertise, professionally. The only other places I can think of that have better soil quality than where I live are Russia and the Ukraine.

Housing developments that scour the earth bare and named after that which they destroyed. Fox Run, Oak Ridge, Forest Brook, etc...

I think they're amazing musicians and lyricists who held regressive viewpoints on certain issues which were more socially acceptable in their bygone era.

Very much this. Well written and thoughtful comment, BTW.

Where's that, for those of us who aren't your neighbours? 😛

No wonder Ukraine and Russia have better soil quality, that's a pretty low bar.
