"Illth" is a term coined by the author and environmental activist Lewis Mumford in the 20th century, combining "ill" and "wealth" to describe the negative aspects of industrialization and modern society that contribute to pollution, environmental degradation, and social disconnection. It represents the idea that the wealth generated by industrial progress can come at a significant cost to the environment and human well-being.
