I'd say it's just the nature of mankind seeking to wring every ounce of "economic" value from the biosphere as possible. The poorest people involved are probably the ones doing the picking, and it wasn't their idea, assuredly.
- swayvil 5y agoIt's the nature of mankind to want a nice house, regular meals and lots of free time. This "wringing" is the fetish of only an insane minority. Who unfortunately dominate the rest of us.
- titzer 5y agoThe insane majority has a great marketing campaign that has inflicted most of the world with lust for their standard of living, which is completely unsustainable. So we are all forced onto the same hedonistic treadmill and told it is for our own good. The machine is always tripping forward, running a little faster to keep from falling on its face. Until it can't anymore. Because you can't grow a watermelon in a light bulb.
