The destruction of the natural world is not the result of global capitalism, industrialisation, “Western civilisation” or any flaw in human institutions. It is a consequence of the evolutionary success of an exceptionally rapacious primate. Throughout all of history and prehistory, human advance has coincided with ecological devastation. — John Gray, STRAW DOGS
The reason this ^^ is painfully true is because avoiding ecological systems collapse would require change on a scale so massive that only after collapse had begun would humans even bother to consider such change given their ability for denial and opposing political agendas.
