    Procreate. That will ensure your damage is always growing.

    Go mess up some forest roads mudding in your 4x4, Camp somewhere and leave your trash, shoot some stuff for kicks and leave it there to decay, and on the way home throw beer cans out the window.

    Get voted onto your local council and overspend your budget every year - by buying new products and dumping the ones you bought last year. Sell off all your woodland and municipal play areas for housing, resurface all the roads and dump that in the countryside, keep the lights on in all your buildings 24/7 - and the heating too.

    Cut down all hedges and taller trees and spray weedkiller everywhere else.

    Allow fracking and oil companies to pollute groundwater for the next million years -even give them incentives to do this. Sell off SSSI's and nature reserves to foreign investors to build golf courses and luxury apartments on.

    Remove incentives for personal solar panels and legislate to oppose new wind farms and renewable projects, Instead invest heavily in Nuclear and coal power stations. - Even buy-in other countries nuclear waste so you can store it here (badly)

    Subsidise producers of toxic chemicals like Roundup and lobby the scientists that complain that it is giving people cancer and killing the bees.

    In short - join your local council or go straight for a government position.

    Pollute pollute pollute. Throw trash everywhere. Drive your car a lot. Use more energy to keep your house warm or cool. Get all your groceries in plastic bags and throw them in the ditch on the way home. You got this.

    Walk, bike, or take public transport whenever possible. If you don't own and drive a car on average you can reduce your total ecological footprint by as much as 20 per cent. Using it less will reduce your footprint, helps to avoid traffic jam and keeps your citys air cleaner.

    Set fire to yourself

    .... look at a list or lists of things to do to reduce your environmental footprint, and do the opposite?

    It'll cost you a lot of money, most likely, in addition to being destructive to the environment.
