Wow those photographs are scary but weirdly beautiful as in a form of art. It is true that our comsumption is putting us in a dangerous sitution and sooner than later we will not be able to get out of this destructive path. It is as Chris Jordan said "a slow motion apocalypse in progress", which means revelation in greek and to truly think about that fact in years to come it will be a revelation to every human that we destroyed the earth. Isn't that mind boggling, that one day there will be no earth because of consumerism that form waste that killed life. How do you imagine no earth?
I think we are heading to the point that everyone will have to change to do more for the earth, not just a couple but all 6.5 billion of us. Furthermore, we need to take blame for our actions as Chris Jordan said "we each are anonymous and no one is in charge or accountable for the consequences". It make us think its okay to pollute, it's okay to shop like wild people, it's okay to waste what others don't have, it's our thinking that need to be changed first then our actions and habits. We need a world not material stuff because that doesn't last billions of years like our precious EARTH! If we don't take care of it who will, we have the resources now, it's possible to heal the earth now if we got together and started, we can end the threat now!

I also thought that Chris Jordan's picture had a strange beauty to them. The truth behind it is this isnt beautiful at all cause these things we consume only excit us for a few moments in time & like you said, our earth last longer then our material obsessions.
i believe you are so right about if we dont change our ways that we are going to destroy the environment and i also agree ur views about wasteing stuff especially about buying material stuff that we dont need and we end up wasteing it.
I totally agree with you we do shop as crazy people and throw away stuff that polluate the earth. many of us do these things because we are not held accountable for our actions. i hope change is on the way because we need to treat the earth better.
