I'm all for producing, shipping and consuming less goods, not only because of the positive impact it would have on the climate and life diversity, but also because I believe it would yield a world that'd be more worth living; and I believe many of the "let's produce/consume local products" supporters actually feel this way too; To say nothing about the more extreme examples of people -- sometimes former tech workers -- who give up "technology" and the niceties of modern confort, to embrace a new life of woodworker, long-haul sailor, farmers... I think we are way past the point where the industry moved us from chilled-to-the-bone-legged-stomachs to sufficiently-warm-and-well-fed-to-turn-our-mind-to-the-interesting-stuff. :-)
