maybe. it might also be that most of the damage is the result of a few particular bad actors.... arguably a large amount of the runaway environmental destruction we've witnessed is the accumulated result of a very small portion of the population being allowed to do whatever the fuck they want whenever the fuck they want for ~200 years?

we could test this theory out, empirically. I propose an experiment where we, um, neutralize, the top 1% who directly facilitate eco-cide in pursuit of corporate profits and then we'll see if nature improves.
