Genesis Economics

The best way to protect the natural world is not to put a price on it, but to leave enough of it off-limits from human acquisition, impact, and control.  Unfortunately, this may have the same result as God's prohibition against eating the apple in the Garden of Eden.

Lyability

If corporations didn't need regulation, they wouldn't cause so much damage, and employ so many lobbyists to let them do it.

Deadly Tradeoff

Cheaper fuel with low carbon emissions may just increase our exploitation of the environment, ensuring the onset of the ecological apocalypse that will cause our population to crash.

Cause and Effect

Prioritizing lifestyle over life leads to only one outcome: death surrounded by waste.

Conflict of Public Interest

If you don't believe in government, you shouldn't be in government.

Enemy of Survival

If we shouldn't let the perfect be the enemy of the good, what should we do if the "perfect" is what we need to do to survive?

Values and Consequences

When making any decision, it's just as wrong to discount its impact on yourself as it is to discount its impact on anyone - or anything - else.
