MODERATORS
I’ll try self discipline and goal oriented decision making. I’ll start off small by checking out some farm stands.
the seeds are owned by those companies
most American farming cannot exist without adding nitrogen
if you are serious about changing your food to reduce impact, lower or cut meat consumption entirely
That has nothing to do with who or where I choose to buy stuff from. I just gave my opinion on what I took away from watching a minute of the video. I explained how I’m going to do it.
Try breaking down the issue into smaller problems and keep doing that until you find something you can control yourself. One person buying fruit from a neighbor isn’t going to change the world overnight, but it’s just something I can do to steer my future the way I want. I’m not solving the issue about nitrogen supplies or intellectual property rights of corporations. I’m just cutting out a bunch of overhead costs added to the price of what I buy. Maybe someone else shares the same perspective and gets motivated to do something themselves. Hopefully it’s you, friend.
the whole point i’m trying to make is these things sound good but don’t actually do anything
these companies are not so stupid to just make it easy to cut them out
it usually cost more to do so and quality may sometimes be better but supply and quality will be inconsistent
