TopicDo you think environment is in such a bad shape because we picked Capitalism?

Our 'environment' is just fine... it's the human species (and the other species too I suppose) that's fucked, and even then, I think humans will be just fine too in the long run (our super consumerist lifestyle was never sustainable to begin with, so that will probably give way in the not-too-far future).

Sure we may make conditions on the planet unbearable for life in the next couple centuries... but keep in mind that even a couple of centuries or millenniums is astronomically small compared to the history and lifespan of our planet.

And if you think capitalists are to blame for the environmental issues we're facing today, what makes you think other economic policies are going to fair any better?
