I think it's pretty irrational to care about the consequences of what we eat centuries from now given that you'd be dead centuries - ~1 century. I mean if that is the case surely you can't sleep at night since the Andromeda galaxy will collide with the Milky way in ~4 billion years.
- apoorvkumar 8y agoThat's a strawman argument. Few centuries is a very reasonable timeline to worry about. I know people who have seen close to 3 quarters of a century of their decendants and are mindful of how their decisions affected their youngest.
- badrabbit 8y agoI am worried about how people will be affected by what we their ancestors ate and ourselves as well. By your argument polluting the enviornment is also ok since catastrophic events won't happen in my life time.
