Did you know? A child born in the United States will create thirteen times as much ecological damage over the course of his or her lifetime than a child born in Brazil With less than 5 percent of world population, the U.S. uses one-third of the world’s paper, a quarter of the world’s oil, 23 percent of the coal, 27 percent of the aluminum, and 19 percent of the copper, Our per capita use of energy, metals, minerals, forest products, fish, grains, meat, and even fresh water dwarfs that of people living in the developing world. Now Imagine if lets say 25% of the world would develop into this kind of consumerism. Im sure Europe has similar stats BTW.
