Description

The comic features a graph with the following labels:

• Vertical Axis (y-axis): "NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO VIEW ENVIRONMENTALISM AS AN ETHICAL CONCERN"
• Horizontal Axis (x-axis): "TIME"
• There is a curve that peaks and then declines over time.

At the peak of the curve, there is an annotation that reads: "POLLUTANT-DUMPING TUBE TO SPACE INVENTED."

The curve starts low, rises to a peak, and then gradually falls back down, illustrating a fluctuation in the number of people concerned about environmentalism, influenced by the invention of a pollutant-dumping tube to space.
