Great comments:

"The most affluent of countries, operates on a depletion economy which
leaves destruction in its wake. Your people are driven by a terrible sense
of deficiency. When the last tree is cut, the last fish is caught, and the
last river is polluted; when to breathe the air is sickening, you will
realize, too late, that wealth is not in bank accounts and that you can’t
eat money."

" 'you can’t eat money.'
I agree, but it seems like you can as long as you have enough of it! I
doubt the people who decide to skirt regulations and destroy an area's
ability to support life are going to be the ones going hungry."

"Free trade agreements, like the pending TTIP with its secret fracking
expansion and huge irreversible LNG export deal basically have the
intentional effect of barring any new regulation after they are signed
forever by means of ISDS."

"I wonder who could have possibly seen this coming.
Certainly not all those sycophantic, or, even worse- oblivious- fracking
engineers who said that the technology could be used perfectly safely,
meanwhile completely ignoring the fossil fuel industry's storied history of
cutting corners and circumventing regulation any way it could for decades
and decades. How stupid do you have to be to believe them again and again?"
