Quotation from ‘Life After Doom’ by Brian McLaren:
No amount of fiddling with capitalism to regulate and humanize it can for long disguise its failure to conserve the wealth and health of nature: eroded, wasted, or degraded soils; damaged or destroyed ecosystems; extinction of biodiversity, species; whole landscapes defaced, gouged, flooded, or blown up; thoughtless squandering of fossil fuels and fossil waters, of mineable minerals and ores; natural health and beauty replaced by a heartless and sickening ugliness. Perhaps its greatest success is an astounding increase in the destructiveness and therefore the profitability of war.
