“Anybody who has ever planted an apple tree knows that you cannot extract resources indefinitely. An apple tree only grows a certain number of apples every year. You can maximize your harvest by treating the plant better and giving it more fertilizer, but it will never become an infinite apple tree. Most other natural resources work the same way and, at the moment, we are running out of all of them.”

“You wake up, check your phone. You see news and social media content designed to outrage you. Throughout the day, notifications pull your attention. Evening comes, you're mentally drained, you open your phone to relax, and the cycle continues. You never actually rest because you're never actually disconnected.”

“The borders might be different, the colonizers might have different flags, but the fundamental relationship remains the same. Resources and profits flow out, costs and damages stay inside.”
