The average CO2 emission for living of a person is much more higher in the west than in the east. Yet we suffer the impacts. If we think together as mankind, limit our pp CO2, stop the greed of corporate, focus together to invent renewable energy and elect those political leaders in power, we can save the mother earth. But things are happening in reverse, countries are choosing more nationalistic and ignorant leaders. We will find so many patriots in the world but find very few earth lover as a whole.

It has destroyed the economy via killing competition by putting 'kings of the hill' corporations in place of mom & pop shops. It is polluting the air, land, and oceans by the dumping the insurmountable waste that capitalism creates. Amazon is burning because of lust for money too. This is very similar to the gun argument that guns dont kill people, but when we regulate or ban guns, the killings decrease substantially. I say in the same way we need to ban the access to guns, so too should be ban money. Proof of my claim?
