   The most pressing issues first. Technology evolves all the time. We   
   don't feed 7.4 billion people even now. If we wouldn't have to raise   
   food to feed animals to feed privileged people, there would be more food   
   for unprivileged people as well.

   Can you say black and white thinking? You're so focused on theoretical   
   future concerns that you've totally crippled yourself at the tracks in   
   the present.

   Most of us can see but have a hard time accepting the unpleasant truth.   
   So we'd rather look at more pleasant things. In order to get a clearer   
   picture of the whole, one must look at the ugly things as well.  I'd   
   recommend some documentaries about the subject, Cowspiracy, maybe, to   
   start with.

   It's a deal then.
