Appreciation of the environment

I dared to think that appreciation of the environment in Malaysia is low. We in Europe often say that developing countries should take good care of their forests, for example, yet we have cleared much of ours centuries ago. That is one of the reasons we enjoy the economic wealth they want to achieve now.

Therefore, we have no right to tell other countries what they should do with their environment unless we state the Earth, our global environment, belongs to everyone and to all of us altogether. But then how will we justify that we have stolen so much from THEM and turned it into OUR ‘well-being’?
