The best thing for an endangered species is capitalism.
For example: Deer hunting is a big business and it turns out deer hunters are some of the best stewards of deer populations and habitat due to their desire to maintain a supply of deer to hunt.
The govt maintains no-hunt zones and endangered species lists which leads to a limited supply,an increased value of the species on the black market and further incentives to poach. Result? Extinction.
Or we could just take money out of politics. You can still have regulated Capitalism. It's just like a football game, if you want to play the game, then everyone needs to follow the rules. Free-market Capitalism will always consume itself. It's just as bad as Communism.
Change the minds of Americans from wanting to be filthy rich to just being stable and happy not needing a huge mansion with 5 cars.
not by force, but just stop worshiping money..
That's the challenge.
It's interesting how the rise of greed corresponds to the diminishing numbers of churchgoers.
Eh capitalism exists as a system not because it is intrinsically "good" or "evil" or any has kind of moral tie in at all. Capitalism is an amoral system. It exists because it functions reasonably well in practice and does not make Utopian assumptions about the motivation of the humans that exist within the system, unlike many of the preceding competitive ideologies.
Instead of assuming altruistic motives it assumes self interested ones, which surprise surprise... tends to mesh well with actual human behavior instead of wished for or desired human behavior.
