Capitalism, in effect, constitutes the point of absolute negativity for society and the natural world. One cannot improve this social order, reform it, or remake it on its own terms with an ecological prefix such as "ecocapitalism." The only choice one has is to destroy it, for it embodies every social disease - from patriarchal values, class exploitation, and statism to avarice, militarism, and now, growth for the sake of growth - that has afflicted "civilization" and tainted all its great advances.
