      Let me be clear. If we focused on de-desertification (rotating livestock between fields never should have stopped) and told the rich they can’t have their fucking yachts and private jets, it would solve the crisis overnight. Fuck you.

      (Edit: I probably shouldn’t post right now. I am not having a good day.)

        I think you both have good points, there’s a lot we can do to tackle the problem, the question is what do we do today?

        Not entirely a rhetorical question, either.

        To jump to where my thinking goes, regulation seems to be the big hurdle, no?

            The problem is that almost everything is manufactured by a corporation now, and in urban areas buying handmade isn’t even an option. Try not trusting Fairphone at least a little bit when literally everyone else is even worse, and see how long you can live in a world where everything is an app. Smartphones have become the car of the internet, they remove the ability of a product or service to be accessible without a phone and some sort of service contract.
