4 “I now want to come to sustainability itself and the values that might encourage it. From a Darwinian point of view, the problem is that: sustainability is all about long-term benefits of the world or of the ecosystem at the expense of short-term benefits. Darwinism encourages precisely the opposite values. Short-term genetic benefit is all that matters in a Darwinian world. Superficially, the values that will have been built into us will have been short-term values not long-term ones”.
