We’re the #richest #society in #history because #markets #optimized #speed #scale and #extraction #faster than #accountability could evolve.

#Wealth didn’t #fail to prevent #environmental #collapse it #enabled #harms that are #delayed #invisible #involuntary and #cumulative

which #price #signals cannot #capture in time. #Property #rights and #contracts break down when #damage appears #decades later, after #executives rotate, #firms dissolve, and #exposure is #universal.

That’s not a lack of #freedom or too much #planning

It’s a time-scale mismatch between #markets and #biology . Environmental justice exists because by the time “true market penalties” arrive, the #damage is already #permanent
