At one point Earth's immense population was sustained only through agressive exploitation of the latest advances in nano-technology. While undeveloped land existed only in nature preserves, and even Antarctica and the continental shelves had been settled by expansionist groups, pollution had been minimized, and what little remained of the natural environment was in superb condition.
Thus it was that, with humanity's entry into the FTL era, the Sol-System was among the worst hit of any of humanity's systems by the nano-plague which followed on the heels of that entry.
At the beginnings of the plague, as nanite reliant technologies crumbled, billions died on Earth alone. Chaos and disorder gripped the planet for years. It was at this time that the Purist faction gained dominance in the Sol-System and begun much of the recovery.
Earth is now a rather nicer place for the change with a mere eight-billion inhabitants.
