I'd love to credit whoever wrote this. No idea. But I'm 100% with its message. When I think of how the '80s ethos, "Greed is Good" has metastasized, it surprises and depresses me. Imagine having so many millions, hundred of millions, even billions & caring about nothing except your own vanity.

An inset circle shows two burrowing owls, highlighting wildlife concerns. Large white text over the image reads, "NEWS: DATA CENTER GROWTH RAISES NEW CONCERNS FOR WILDLIFE," with a small bird logo in the bottom-right corner.
