Also, in my own life I can say that chemicals in food have had a direct and negative effect on my health in a way that atmospheric CO2 has not. I’ll cover this in an upcoming post on milk vs. alt milks.

I am constantly stunned by how Americans can feel persecuted and denied when . . . they have a roof over their heads, potable water, indoor toilets, an abundance of food, transportation and at least some access to health care. We are a rich but unhappy nation. Living slimmer lives may not only be what our world can support, it may also help us remember what makes us happy -- often social connections, not a vast refrigerator.

Well said, Ellen! There's also an argument that less luxury will make us stronger. The old adage "good times produce weak men" is apt.
