The best thing people can do is eat local food in season!
And people do the exact opposite, just because they can afford, they don't know the long run implications, until they feel.

Yes they do and it pisses me off. We now have everyone going on about how wonderful avocados are. Well that is great if you are in a country that normally grows avocados.
But so many people aren't and the UK doesn't...
To meet the soaring avocado demand, vast areas of forests particularly in Mexico (the world's largest producer), are being illegally cleared to make way for new avocado plantations.
Then you have the fact that Avocado trees are incredibly thirsty. It takes an estimated 320 liters (around 84 gallons) of water to produce just one avocado.
Right enough ranting, it just winds me up.
