MORTON, P. 61. SUMMARIZE THIS PASSAGE:
"[Talking about 'saving the planet'] weakens
the ties between the natural and the human. It
channels concern away from your life or the
lives of others, towards the well-being of an
abstract geophysical entity. ... ¶ Concern for
the planet itself is also... ...misplaced. Unlike
humans and their societies, unlike many of the
landscapes and creatures that people love and
depend upon, the planet is not fragile in any
way." (Morton, p. 61)
