Everyone is thinking about immediate benefit, but lacking in perspective about ultimate consequence when our BEAUTIFUL UNTOUCHED environment becomes polluted and ugly with factories producing smoke everywhere (for example).

so why is ENVIRONMENT MORE IMPORTANT, FIRST and FOREMOST in comparison to anything else?

the answer is CANCER.

you can have a DEVELOPED country in the end, but if the people living in it are DYING of cancer and other problems produced by care-less development, then the reward is really not that sweet is it?

you have to do everything in a wise, sustaining way instead of doing it fast and ruthlessly
