Market forces are there, sure. There is no denying that having a demand leads to these practices. But regulators who are compromising between sustainability and corporate interests, aren’t truly regulating. Regulators need to have hard stances on these things and it should be up to the corporations to deal with the limits. Consumers are going to have to deal with products having seasons again, limited availability, or higher prices. The system will stabilize, but it’s going to end up there anyway as the climate changes or resources get depleted.

And I apologize. I didn’t mean to misrepresent your opinion. I ended up on a bit of a rant there that was only sparked by a notion in your opinion.

People only need to do the best they can, for them, in whatever situation they are in. I get frustrated with the messaging that corporations push that it’s up to us as individuals to be responsible and prevent climate change or save the planet when it’s our collective responsibility as a society through government regulation.
