Civilization Is Not And Can Never Be Sustainable.

To Be Clear, Civilization Is Not The Same As Society. Civilization Is A Specific, Hierarchical Organization Based On 'power Over.'

It Should Ultimately Mean More Justice, More Local Control, More Democracy, And More Human Rights, Not Less.

Premise Eight: The Needs Of The Natural World Are More Important Than The Needs Of The Economic System.

So Long As We Only Believe In The Justice Of The State, Of The Law-made By Those In Power, To Serve Those In Power-so Long Will We Continue To Be Exploited By Those In Power.
