Because God intends them to use up as much of it as possible before the Apocalypse, which is coming in their lifetimes. Due to their using up as much as possible.
It’s funny how conservative Apocalyptic believers blame everything they don’t “believe” in on liberals. If conservatives had their way, children would still be working in factories and coal mines, women would still be property, most of us would be slaves and no modern medicines, no social security, no nothing except poverty, disease and early death. Conservatives held sway in Western civilization from the collapse of the Roman Empire until 1500 brutal years had passed. This period is known as “The Dark Ages.” Then liberals began to liberate human kind. Many of them got burned at the stake for their troubles.When did an ultra-liberal like Jesus get to be the darling and god of the conservative bunch anyway?

Jesus an ultra-liberal? I don’t think so; there’s nothing in the Bible that says he believed that more government was the answer to society’s great problems. Nor was he conservative. But radical? You better believe it! To think he believed that we should love others as we do ourselves and that we should personally take care of widows and orphans. Two thousand years later, people (and I’m point the finger at myself) still have a problem embracing ideas like those and following through.
Off the pig!(Sorry, just an old slogan of the young communists that came to mind.) At your age, you don’t need that negativity in your life, Opus; neither do we….
This could easily continue on for a thousand more panels and still not cover everything over which people today find themselves either outraged or ashamed! Both sides of the aisle!
We get Outland strips where the Bloom County strips are supposed to be, and now Bloom County 2015 has morphed into Outland 2015?? Or Outland 1992?? (this is from 12/13/92)
Kill the little f’er. People like that just piss me off. I am an American. Only second behind the Saudi Princes in conspicuous consumerism. Deal with it.
Humans can and have damaged our ecosystem. No other species could have done that.
Just how blind can you be!? Have you never seen what beaver does?Also, almost all species go through periods of population boom and devastate the ecosystem. Eventually, they die back and the environment recovers.

Opus, go back to your original plan and have some bacon and eggs. And remember to remove the bacon’s glasses.

You can’t cure everything. Just make the positive changes that you can. If everyone helps where they can, it will add up.

The art in Outland was atrocious, but occasionally the brilliance of the social commentary was still there.
