RE: Not sustainable

in Reflectionslast year

I can't - just can't - watch it. I think I know enough about it anyway and it'd just be torture to watch it for me and have it break my heart yet again.

Just a query - do you eat much meat? I know one of the biggest things we CAN do is to reduce our meat consumption, even if it's limiting to once a week. It's frustrating I reckon to have to be conscious about everything we eat because of where it comes from and how it might impact the planet and our environment in many ways. We can but try, I guess.

Dad always gets upset about the lack of fish around these days. He used to fish a bit with my nephew but never catch anything like he did when he was a kid. It made him feel sorry for my nephew who ended up giving it up because there jsut wasn't enough fish around to keep him interested and it was kinda sad.

I know we've got so much ability to change things - I guess it'll just take everyone to change their habits. Not bloody easy with a cost of living crisis - being sustainable isn't at the top of everyone's priorities I guess.

I know, it's probably not something you're feel comfortable watching, rather brutal in places.

Meat? I probably eat chicken and beef about five to seven times a month, seafood maybe ten times and plant-based the rest. I was raised as vegetarian for the first 17.5 years if my life so eating meat only occasionally isn't an issue for me, I actually prefer it that way.

The word sustainable is a bit of a joke to me, a convenient word used to make people feel better rather than an actual reality.

Humans have a choice to make, massive action in the right direction or continue the downward spiral with an ultimate end as the reward for it. Now is the time to choose.
