Could you be a little less opaque? Do you mean that reducing 
pesticide use will require depopulating the cities? Where will 
everyone go?

NYC also houses half the U.S. non-poverty households without cars. We 
use less energy here than practically any place in the USA. If you 
depopulate us, will we have to start driving? Or do I have to grow my 
own food and weave my own cloth?
