We over-eat, over-buy, and over-built, spewing out our toxic wastes upon the earth and into the air.” WorldYearsChildrenProblemEarthBornEconomyAirWasteResourcesBuiltAspectThirdsIndiaTwentiesWestAverageToxicFourthConsumptionConsumerismDeliberateOverconsumptionOverpopulationAmerican EconomyToxic Waste Author:Richard J.
