" Only when you've chopped down the last tree and polluted the last stream will you realise that you can not eat money."

Does anyone know of this quote? Who said it, and is it from White Cloud???

Thanks

"Only after the last tree has been cut down,
Only after the last river has been poisoned,
Only after the last fish has been caught,
Only then will you find that money cannot be eaten."
~Cree Indian Prophecy (or proverb)
