Jā es zinu, ka Austrālija nav labākais piemērs.

Stulbie degroveri, ka tik mūs ierobežot.  
These results suggest that it is possible to substantially reduce plastic waste mismanagement – one of the grand environmental challenges of the modern era. However, it is also sobering and instructive to consider the robustness of the policy package required to achieve such a result.

Piemēram, ja tev ir miljardi, tad tu vari nopirkt vēlēšanas un saregulēt visu, lai tiktu pie triljona, kamēr pārējie nevar savilkt galus kopā. Stilīgi. Man droši vien, ka skauž.





Un tas ir nepierēķinot twitera pirkumu.

Interesanti.  
Ja jebkurš cits pērtiķis (ne homo sapiens) atrastu veidu kā uzkrāt daudz pārtikas (hoarding), kamēr citi sugas brāļi turpat blakus mirtu badā, tad zinātnieki mestos skaidrot, kas nav labi ar attiecīgo pērtiķi un vidi, kurā ir uzradusies tāda nedabīga iespēja.
Homo sapiens gadījumā, uzkrājēji tiek slavināti kā kaut kas uz ko tiekties visiem. Un tie, kas mirst badu, ir paši vainīgi.

Par saprātīgām būtnēm runājot.  
Animal sentience is often thought of as a complex, poorly defined, subjective, and abstract concept, raising as many questions as it does answers. If you talk to different people about their views on animal sentience you will undoubtedly get various responses. If you asked a pet owner whether animals have feelings, they would regale you with stories of when their dog comforts them, or is proud of himself when he opens a closed door. A farmer who works closely with his or her animals may tell you about how cow number 19 likes being tickled behind her ears, and how cow number 25 is the shy and cautious one. But then you may talk to someone who sees animals only in terms of their monetary value. Animals to such people are not living, sentient beings, they represent commodities. It is far easier for them to see animals in this way but far less convenient for them to consider their ability to suffer or their need to experience positive emotions like pleasure. How people perceive animals is never black and white, attitudes may depend on the species in question, and the animals perceived mental ability [47]. However, when you consider how we treat the animals we farm for food, experiment upon, or use for entertainment, you can clearly see how important these perspectives are, and which the dominant ones are.

Varbūt kāds no jums ir gājis cauri līdzīgai problēmai un tāpēc spēs dot padomu. Rakstu bakalaura darbu tiesību filozofijā par diezgan retu tēmu - tiesību estētika: vizuālās komunikācijas perspektīvas un ietekme. Internetā aiz maksas sienas atrodu labas grāmatas par šo tēmu, taču nevaru ziedot simtiem eiro grāmtas dēļ. Vienīgais, ko var atrast, ir pilni grāmatu ievadi. Šo to normālu esmu atradis https://libgen.is/. Taču cenšos tikt pie aizliegtā augļa - grāmatas Aesthetics of Law (2020., K.Zeidler). Neviens šo problēmu nav apskatījis man tik izdevīgi kā Zeidlera k-gs.

Esmu gatavs iepazīt interneta tumšo pusi, ja kāds ir gatavs palīdzēt zināšanas alkstošam biedram ar informāciju. Citiem vārdiem, varbūt interneta tumšajā pusē mīt vide, kur brālīgi dalās ar akadēmisko literatūru? Zinu, esmu romantiķis.

Lai vai kā, varbūt kādam ir kādi ieteikumi, neordināri risinājumi? Pateicos par iespēju uzrunāt jūs, Dārgā Ciba.

Vegānu joki parasti ir stipri nesmieklīgi, atradu vienu vismaz nedaudz smieklīgu.  
There's a lot of vegan meats now. There's Tofu Turkey, which they call Tofurkey. There's Tofu Bacon, which they call Tofacon. Apparently someone has made Tofu Duck, but they're having trouble with the name.

The powerful forces backing animal agriculture are determined to maintain their dominance, despite the devastating harm their industry inflicts on animals, the planet, and public health.

"known to beneficially modulate risk factors for cardiovascular disease; however, the current literature does not differentiate between various plant-based diets. This study aimed to examine the association between various plant-based diets and plasma lipids and glycaemic indices compared to a regular meat-eating diet."

"In conclusion, this cross-sectional study of healthy middle-aged adults found individuals adhering to a vegan dietary pattern had favourable plasma lipids and glycaemic indices compared to regular-meat dietary patterns characterised by significantly lower concentrations of TC, LDL-C, non-HDL-C, TC/HDL ratio, FBG, HbA1c and insulin."
