In many parts of the country, agricultural land is being used to house solar panels. The panels create renewable energy, and the land remains usable for graz...
You’ve worded it well and, personally, agree strongly with your points. You’ve also used one of my favourite quotes, “perfect/good”, so I instantly like you.
I don’t believe I’m entirely suited to this community because I don’t believe in the hope of fixing everything that is broken. But I do like everyone here because, in my eyes, they’re trying to do something about it. The perfect is the enemy but we can strive towards the perfect by discussion, experimentation, and feedback.
“However, I continue to try and I continue, indefatigably, to reach out. There’s no way I can single-handedly save the world or, perhaps, even make a perceptible difference - but how ashamed I would be to let a day pass without making one more effort.” - Isaac Asimov
Sorry I’ve replied to another comment of yours but I’d just like to ask you why you aren’t vegan (which you presumably aren’t). Again sorry I’m badgering you a bit but you interest me
Because my work requires leather boots and leather gloves.
I’m mostly vegetarian but will eat invasive deer kill when provided, will eat meat off other people’s plates if they are going to chuck it (farmed meat, whatever it is out of respect for animal). I also live on a working community and there is a dairy of 2 cows and I have drunk milk and eaten cheese (despise dairies though). There is also goats and cows around, and I have 2 male ducks that we keep that were going to be killed. Kids have pet rats.
While I wear leather, I can’t cross that line. Plus everything else means I’m not a vegan. Can’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good though. If someone paid me in meat from an animal they slaughtered (I’ve been paid in kept beeswax before which is not vegan), I wouldn’t say no. Milk from the small dairy in a coffee, wouldn’t say no. Free food, probably wouldn’t say no.
