One Bird
We live in a society where "killing two birds with one stone" is seen as a good thing.
We justify that doing so is "more efficient."
We tell ourselves, "if we can, why shouldn't we?"
But just because we can does not mean that we should.
When it comes down to it, if you only need one bird, "killing" any more is wasteful.
It is irresponsible.
It is unsustainable.
And the mentality of hoarding and believing that we must keep resources from others in order to have a leg up (believing that more for "them" means less for "us" and vice versa) is what keeps our world stuck in a state of ever-increasing scarcity and lack.
