“If wealth was the inevitable result of hard work and enterprise, every woman in Africa would be a millionaire.”
George Monbiot

“Progress is measured by the speed at which we destroy the conditions that sustain life.”
George Monbiot

“We are often told we are materialistic. It seems to me, we are not materialistic enough. We have a disrespect for materials. We use it quickly and carelessly.

George Monbiot
