Life is relatively short, and most people want to eat and do what they like or what they’re used to regardless of the consequences for their health or the health of the planet. Besides, most of them don’t see the cause and effect between their behavior and environmental calamities or will deny it as a psychological defense mechanism. Add to that the unscrupulous big agro-business and politicians that are in its pockets, and the future for our progeny looks pretty bleak.
