One also cannot overlook the fact that if everyone lived like we Americans we'd need no less than 7 Earth's worth of resources and pollution absorption to support it all.

It is impossible to live without impact, but we can each choose - directly and through our spending and support (or lack of support) for various organizations and factions - to leave the world better off than we found it, or spiraling downward that much faster.
