We would have done it already, no? Perhaps only punitive measures work. Pollution and environmental damage cannot be quantified ...it is invisible and we assume that it is a function of time.
But it isn’t..it is because of consumption and population growth(which leads to more consumption)

No, lots of countries had a problem with water pollution, including the US (Tom Lehrer wrote a satire song in '65 on that issue[1]), and then they implemented measures to improve it. India can and will do the same, I'm sure. [1] https://youtu.be/nz_-KNNl-no?t=18 https://youtu.be/nz_-KNNl-no?t=18

- wh1t3n01s3 7y agoEdit, I was wrong on the improving pollution side note, sorry. Anyway the capitalist consumism will pollute more than it can be improved...
