"Earth is better off with environmentally useful humans".

Sigh. I know, but it's been difficult to see humans as anything other than selfish, greedy, environmentally destructive parasites.

There's strong evidence wealth equality increases environmental conservation, but it seems like we'll never have either one.

I should have been more clear when defining rich. For example I'm rich in comparison to a lot of people living in less economically developed nations, and as wealth increases, consumption rates increase.

I don't want to eat the rich. I don't even care to be rich. I just want care for the environment and people.

Thanks for your insight. xo
