Can three generations of Americans actually destroy the world? Yes, we can.

With Disproportionate control over profound and widespread technological advances ... a nihilistic view of 'what's right for me is all that matters' ... and an uncompromising sense of economic unaccountability ... we are able to everyday move one step forward in realizing a socio-political framework founded upon rapid expanding consumer production that is completely deviod of civic virtue and modesty.

By simply dreaming the unmanageable ... accomplishing the unreasonable ... and realizing the inappropriate ... we can meet our goals of imposing our mark on the future through the consumption of resource and the creation of waste.

With advanced ingenuity and self-centeredness ... we are now able to consume and destroy ... over a period of mere decades ... what used to take centuries ... and even then would amount to only a fraction when compared to the extent of our own hyperinflated rate of utilization.

By blackening the sky to light our houses ... by stripping the soils paving them with highways and strip malls and suburbs ... by constantly tearing down and then rebuilding our cities on a foundation of industrial waste ... by flooding the oceans with an array of toxic chemicals to ensure sanitary conditions in the household and a facial cleanser that keeps us looking young well into our sixties ... by taking a world that is green, turning it brown, and call that 'green' ...

Yes, We Can.
