classic liberal moving, trying to trick us into eating water bugs
If we lower the demand by not eating them, we can lower the supply taken from the ocean by self interested businesses trying to maximize profits. This ad increases consumer demand by framing consumption as good. It is far better to minimize our consumption of animals if we care about their lives.
I agree with the sentiment, but my experience of capitalism is that it would not cause reduction in resource exploitation. The reduced cost because of lower demand would just make it profitable to some other industry instead, who would use up the supply.
In some cases, you can even have the government intervene, like subsidizing production to avoid loss of jobs.
It’s really a grab all you can world out there :(
Pretty sure that’s what Jeffery Dahmer said too
Signs like this make me sad
Yeah and whose sin is it, Jimmy? That’s right, yours. Stop killing the ocean bugs!
