Ok, I’ll say that I’m being too myopic. But I do believe the scale is definitely different from back before technology was a major concern. Humans caused destruction to the environment, but I don’t believe we had the capacity to make it a global existential crisis for our species until modern production and infinite consumption was considered the best practice for humanity. I don’t think nixing capitalism will solve the problems overnight, but reigning it in with reasonable expectations isn’t a bad idea.
