Wealth and surplus money have led to financial gambling and rampant social injustice, whereby the common people end up contributing to the construction of golf courses, classy hotels, and holiday resorts, while fattening Swiss bank accounts. Besides, the people of wealthy countries are the most frustrated, unemployed, unhappy, suicidal, sedentary, worthless and aimless people in history. What a miserable exchange.

I just looked at the wiki page on him. Looks pretty interesting. Quote:
By decimating its woodlands, Finland has created the grounds for prosperity. We can now thank prosperity for bringing us among other things two million cars, millions of glaring, grey-black electronic entertainment boxes, and many unnecessary buildings to cover the green earth. . .

Check Pentti Linkola ideas (however controversial) he talks about same issue with Finnish forests.

Many of us feel the same way, although I was not lucky enough to have many natural ecosystems nearby when I was growing up.
That's a damn shame. I have lost a lot of the land I grew up with as well.

I think most everyone has. It will continue to be that way I'm afraid.

In his new fiction "Songs of the Dead" he kept asking the question "what is it like to be a forest" and "what is it like to be a forest face by this culture". It really hit home.

I think it would work to say, "what is it like to directly depend on a forest?" "What is it like to see your means of survival faced by this culture?"

Maybe do a pro-life video and reclaim the term.
When i was on the train going to New York i saw how forested New York state seemed to be and i remembered Jensen saying something along the lines of: there's a lot of praise being made about how New England is becoming reforested, the trees are growing back...but only because all your wood is coming from south america.

People don't understand that even if they don't see the effects of their actions, they still exist. Someone has to suffer somewhere from what we do, even if we choose not to notice it.
