      Unfortunately, a healthy nature is required to keep all those, it’s just not quite as visible or explicit as a bag of money.

      What is not required is billions of profit going in the pockets of a few extremely rich investors though, that money could easily be used for improvements to our planet without impacting the livelihoods of anyone.

          I don’t know. I rather doubt our bodies can evolve and adapt to a new environment before we die out. At the very least, even if we do take to the stars, whatever survives will have evolved to something new

      See I have the same sentiment, yet i get downvoted. The only people screaming are the ones already in good situations.

          Can we start with the wealth of the 1st world and give it to everyone else? Im just a poor Guatemalan man working 2 jobs to sustain my family of 8. I will spend your money buying things I dont need just as much as you but ill be happy to take your wealth.

            I’m all for seeing what that looks like. I promise I have little more than you. I’m interested in stripping away excess profits and seeing what level of luxury the world gets to enjoy in an egalitarian economy.
