More than one planet

I think it is a popular opinion shared by much of the human species, that we are all destroying the planet rapidly and so many of us "just don't care" enough for the world we live on.   I don't think I agree with that idea.  I think most people are caring individuals who would love to use more renewable resources than they have the ability to now.  The education and the means to afford using renewable resources is something most of our population does not have the means to achieve.  Sure some people actually live in a world blinded by their desire for new shiny plastic items each and everyday, but i think that attitude is more rare than we are told.   Possibly, if certain foreign policies our own country holds were re-examined, than it would be easier to make large changes against pollution all at once than trying to take so many tiny steps each day.
