No I also agree with you on the meat too! I don’t think anyone should be hunting any animal living in the industrial wastes of our society. I’m not encouraging people to do that as Ria is with the plants. I am fortunate enough to live in a place less disturbed by environmental degradation.

I also don’t support industrial mass agriculture. You are preaching to the choir on that one too. I’m not encouraging everyone to live a vegan diet though knowing that everyone’s landscape is different. I think you’ll find many vegan primitivist are actually consumerist vegans as I’ve heard Ria imply. I doubt very few don’t buy into the industrial agricultural system.

I know hunters out near where I live who hunt because it’s less terrible than supporting the animal agriculture. They also for the most part live very far from markets. Very few of these hunters I’ve met have been trophy hunters who didn’t respect and put a lot of time appreciating the animals. They primarily hunt deer for the most part because as mentioned it’s very abundant. A few of these hunters are at the forefront of conservation efforts because they realize the importance of habitat for these animals.

I agree that car based sprawl development is a huge problem. Where I live much of it is forested but where development is occurring large scale habitat loss has begun to be noted. The introduction of just simple paved roads changes an entire ecosystem.
