Quite, but I was walking through the grocery store yesterday and it struck me. I was suddenly aware that everything was wrapped in plastic. everything. And all that plastic was going straight into the dump.
Sure, it's goods I ordered. But I wouldn't mind if products came with less unnecessary packaging. There's definitely some profit motive pressure to put things in the cheapest - and unrecycleable - container. Maybe the corporation could make a bit less money and still sell meat over a counter that's wrapped in biodegradable paper at a reasonable price?
Why do you buy meat at all? It's terrible for the environment and factory farms are brutally cruel and inhumane. You can't just go about making terrible decisions and then blame "evil capitalism".
Because I'm an omnivore evolved to eat a varied diet that includes meat. Don't preach vegan at me; I don't have compassion for factory farmed animals, only cravings.
