I agree with a few sentiments and ideologies proposed by Vermillion Edict. If you think about it, much of the planet's destruction can be credited to, in its rawest form, greed. After all, to sum up the data into a nice illustration, if the forests aren't cut down for wood or land space, soil layers aren't dug up to expose minerals, or factories are prohibited from using the only resources they can to manufacture goods - spewing harmful gases into the bio- and atmosphere - then how is the big, corpulent corporate manager, seated in his luxurious chair, supposed to be able to count his money? How is the economy supposed to function when mechanisms of large portions of its budget have to be changed at a substantial pace? (As if the latter isn't happening, already.)
To sum the secular aspect of my opinion up, allow me to quote famed scientist Stephen Hawking: "It will be difficult enough to avoid disaster on planet Earth in the next hundred years, let alone the next thousand, or million." Taking the environmental factors into consideration, it's likely humans will be popping up on the endangered species list within the next few decades should technology be all about industrialization, or should man continue to ruin his homeland.
