Why is profligate waste accepted without question, but good stewardship of the world’s resources is somehow an alien concept? Maybe the answer is in our DNA. Just like the trees that drop millions of seeds, to have only a few survive and grow; or our fellow animals which have huge litters, losing many to predation. It’s time to stop and look around, and realize that – just perhaps – this massively wasteful strategy won’t work much longer, if it ever really did.
