We are an unusual species. We have invested immense sums studying cancers, and have developed a reasonable understanding of why cancer kills: Its unrestrained growth interferes with the functioning of the body's organs - consuming nutrients needed by other cells, and invading organs, this impeding their ability to function.

And so with this model of unconstrained growth, we happily build an economic system that replicates cancer in the larger world: over-extracting resources, squandering energy, generating waste we cannot get rid of, displacing essential ecosystems with land development and abusive agricultural & forestry practices.

We do it for "money" and because of "property rights" that enable "prosperity" through growth.
