Is this all we will leave behind?
Will the landfill say more about us than our obituary?
Will the stuff in our lofts say more about us than our gravestones?
Will we carry on consuming without a care for tomorrow?
Do we care about tomorrow if we will not be in it?
Can we think of others anymore?
Do we really think Ebay is the answer to recycling?
But we have the answers.
Man is the smartest critter on the planet.
He has changed the flow of rivers.
Taken down mountains, rock by rock.
He has even started to change the climate.
Now it's time for man to do the hard thing.
To change his behavior.
The trouble is, man is hardwired to consume.
We will not stop man wanting to consume more and more.
We will not stop consuming, we all know that.
The human is hardwired to consume.
What we will have to do is be better consumers.
