Perhaps this goes to show the power of the 'hive mind'?
Only yesterday at the 'hairy farmers' moot; many of us opined that it was a tad unrealistic to hope for much, in the way of legislative change at least, that would go in favour of the ecologically minded farmer or producer..
That maybe educated 'consumer led' change; was the best that we could work towards...
Great; another ongoing job for us to do... Spreading a positive message.
But could there be a few other options for leverage? Pressure points? 'Hairline' cracks even?
Could these be a route in higher up; to effect change..?
Most of us espousing 'another way' have been around long enough; to see a few false dawns; but who knows....
Maybe the drive to be 'Biggering and biggering' profits at the expense of all else; disregarding other creatures great and small; isn't going to be the norm for ever.
Quite frankly how could it be?
Rational realists; see that we live on a fragile planet with finite resources. That we have to share 'nicely'...
How we chose to use; and distribute those resourses has to be a rational; real world decision. Consciously made... With everyone in mind.
It's the hardest thing to do...
But.
If you do give up hope...
Then all hope of real change is lost...
And tasty food; might fall off the menu for good.
In my opinion; that would be a disaster of the highest order..

| Even if the flavour isn't everyones favourite. The astonishing hues of rainbow chard are an undeniable glory... I plan to make a frock of green satin; and embroider it with this particular silken pink; plus all the other colours available... The time has come to get out the needle and thread again.. I'd forgotten, just how much satisfaction there is to be had from hand stitching... An eminently portable craft; especially on lightweight materials.. No power source needed, even achievable by torchlight, if necessary.... |
