I am surprised about you answers that all seem to me the best answers. I would not succeed to choose the best one.
Thank you.

yes. Look at the way most of Europe is set up -excellent mass transit, efficiency requirements for appliances and automobiles, well laid-out cities, etc. and compare that with the US - poor to non-existent mass transit, urban sprawl, bigger/better/faster, etc. It's greed, pure and simple.

A small part of the world wastes way too much resources while most of the world doesn't even have these things at all. so I assume that by 'our ways' you are talking about Americans, or possibly Europeans. Most Africans, Chinese, Latin Americans, indigenous people don't have enough water, don't have electricity, don't use much gas at all. There are some rich people in these areas too that hog it all. It is one of the greatest injustices in the world, and a cause for much unrest. So, yes, I do thing that some peoples' ways lead them to waste too much water, petrol and electricity and stuff, and on top of that it deprives others in the world of things that they really need. We should live in a way that balances and distributes the world's resources more justly.

That is exactly the problem. Everything in this world lives in
balance, except human beings. Which takes more than it needs, and wastes what it takes.
People ask why did God make bugs? But bugs till the soil. Fertilize the plants. And feed other creatures.
The question should be. Why did God make us?
The Scriptures say in Hebrews, that the faithful were faithful, because they knew that our spirits are strangers and pilgrims in this world.
So quit living in fear, like there is no tomorrow. This is only a temporary experience.

Its the availability that lets us do it. We are creatures of our own device and we make it possible. So the answer is really no, Its not too much until we have none left.

Yes, the american society is usually carless because we make enough money and products are cheap enough that we don't care. It's simple economics to understand why us as americans do so.
