    By equitable I meant ‘equitable for everyone’ not equitable for only the people of the core of the empire.

      I mean we are saying the same thing… i am just saying that thinking this way is pretty elitist. There are developing african and asian countries that will soon surpass the US and EU in population. Im sure they will have the same mindset though.

        If you don’t think corporations and governments in Africa have the same idea that there should be endless growth, I suggest you read up on them.

          My last like 5 posts on this have been sarcastic. I think its incorrect to think that environmental policy starts and stops with the west. I also think its unrealistic to think a developing country doesnt aspire to become just as waste hungry.
