Habitat loss is of immediate and existential concern undeniably. In addition, toxic chemical pollution is of equal import, if not greater. Endocrine disrupting chemicals have dropped testosterone by over 60% in Western men since I hit puberty, and it is impossible to estimate how important this is to those that suffer it, and society as a whole. It is also important to note that this harm is being done to us, but it is also being done to many other species, and not only mammals.

There is a way to end these problems that does not require a global tax, or even any tax at all. It's just to boycott companies whose businesses cause the problems. As decentralization develops, I reckon we'll be boycotting many businesses by default soon anyway.

The problems are dire, but readily soluble, so we should be acting as possible to rectify the problems we can. I'll worry about global warming/cooling when we have some control over the sun.

Thanks!
