Interstingly, the same ones that want to collectivize the earth have never
grasped the ultimate consequences of the actions, known as "the tradgedy of the commons". I am well aware of the tragedy of the commons, and am not advocating "collectivizing the earth". But the attitude that we can do what we want with impunity is counterproductive. We are doing things to it that benefit us in the near term, but cause harm in the far term. We've even made a business out of it, and in doing so, think that this business is legitimate, and rightfully ours. That's what humans do to survive and prosper. That worked when there weren't many humans, and their tools were weak. Our abilities are now far stronger than the environment's ability to recover, and we need to use discretion in a way that we didn't a thousand years ago.
