Money cannot be eaten!

From a poster at the Occupy London Tent University outside St Paul's Cathedral:

"Only after the last tree has been cut down.

"Only after the last river has been poisoned.

"Only after the last fish has been caught.

"Only then will you find out that money cannot be eaten."

Or, as I said in my recent post about the Arctic on cuttingthecarbon, even as we fall over the cliff we will be grasping at the air and trying to sell it for a profit.
