Despite our vast educational systems, information technologies and media networks, despite having hordes of academics and experts, there is almost no official or public recognition that the quest for affluence and growth is the basic cause of our alarming global predicament.

Yup.

And yes, everything is about Super-sizing
and "growing".

Super-size this house, this car, this RV,
this cruise ship, this airliner...
and what other outcome can we expect?

Just like the guy in the movie who keeps
asking for the Super-size junk food,
the underlying system -- the body -- the planet --
gets sick... really sick.

fried liver function...friend heart function.

fried atmosphere... fried oceans.

same deal.
