Including capitalism on there seems gratuitous. USSR was no better at land stewardship than us. Cuba, N Korea, the same.

It's more about human nature than capitalism or any economic system in particular. If anything capitalism is capable of including externalities, if we choose to. If we don't, eventually, we will face the issue, as many others. Not the ideal way to dal with issues which are decades in the future. Classical example is national debt and of course, climactic change.
