Something that may come as a surprise to many people living in Western nations is that citizens of countries in the global South and developing areas of Asia are generally opposed to having their countries torn apart to satisfy the endless demand for raw materials created by the West. So when people talk about spreading the resource-intensive Western way of life around the globe in order to improve living conditions I have to wonder how much we could improve living conditions by, I dunno, *NOT* doing that?
