Don’t know who made this but congratulations, I was amused. Found somewhere on the internet. This is actually a quote from David Attenborough and, with some qualifications, it’s one I can endorse. (Qualifications being, for example, that most of the problems Attenborough worries about originate in so-called “First World”, industralized cultures, whose consumption habits— an the subsequent waste that consumption produces—make up the statistical majority and it’s not entirely accurate to just generalize to “all humans” rather than more accurate ‘per capita’ consumption/pollution accounting. There’s also the fact that, according to the Carbon Majors Report, just around 100 companies are responsible for “70% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions since 1988.” I could go on and on with my qualifications but you probably get the point. Besides, as George Carlin once said, “The Planet is fine, the people are fucked!“) -- source link
