 Trump and his administration are aware of what is happening in the world or if they care the Earth is under deadly stress by no less an enemy than humans.

Are they so certain their crackpot theories are valid, that global warming is a hoax, that it’s fine to keep cutting down forests, that burning the Amazon is good for ranchers, that pollution is good for business, that poisoning children by neurotoxins in their food is an unavoidable part of food production?

Or am I wasting my time even raising these questions?

Trump probably believes with most economists that you make money by breaking eggs: cutting down trees, producing food by poisoning the land and the food people eat, constructing golf courses and skyscrapers, gambling in the stock market, outsourcing most industries, digging for gold, silver, and petroleum and lavishing the Pentagon’s war machine.

This is probably true. Economists and executives of the country’s largest companies consider pollution an externality of no consequence. They have been opposing environmental regulations for decades. Trump is doing their bidding.

So, why should we be upset by the latest proposal of Trump to log the Tongass National Forest?

Civilization

Societies join civilization under the rule of law and the virtues of justice, keeping religion out of politics, guaranteeing the freedom of thought, the employment of science for the discovery of truth, and protecting human and environmental health. In other words, you no longer live alone out in the woods, shooting everything that moves for a meal. Even MacDonald’s happy meals shouldn’t take away the rights of wild animals to also have an opportunity for a meal.

Under these virtuous political and ecological conditions, not many countries qualify to talk, much less to brag, about civilization.

It’s not merely Jair Bolsonaro who is burning the Amazon for more beef exports. American and European and African and Asian politicians and businessmen are burning and excavating their countries for money and power. Or, if that is not possible, they fund others in other countries to convert the natural world into cash.

Few if any world politicians and businessmen take climate change seriously and abandon fossil fuels or protect the natural world as if their lives depended on it.
