Etymology

The specific name is derived from Latin beo (meaning to bless or enrich).

gollark: I mean, cheap zero-carbon-dioxide power wouldn't fix EVERYTHING, but it would solve many of the climate-change-y issues we have, more so over time as many of the solutions to things require plentiful electricity.
gollark: Environmental damage is partly a fixable technical problem and partly a social one, because people are SILLY DODECAHEDRA who will not accept the obvious solution (to some things) of nuclear power. I'm also not convinced that reverting to horrible premodern living standards would *reduce* depression.
gollark: Hmm, this is quite long.
gollark: Buy vast tracts of land in a random third world country, become anarchoprimitivism, ???, profit.
gollark: You can also, well, buy land and grow food there, if you really want. My family has a small food-growing garden in our, er, garden.
