So is it immoral for a farmer to farm?
If EVERYONE farmed, there would be waaaay to much food and no water left on the planet.

- gretch 3y agoNo it is not immoral for everyone to farm. In fact I would actually recommend, if feasible, to start a garden in their yard for staple veggies. Just think how much energy we would save instead of shipping potatoes from Idaho or soybeans from China. And everyone would be getting way better nutrition. If everyone farmed a little bit, that would be amazing for our society and our planet.

- Volundr 3y ago> If EVERYONE farmed, there would be waaaay to much food and no water left on the planet. This is only true if everyone had industrial sized farms. If everyone farmed the scale of the farms would naturally decrease in size. I'm not sure how one "scales" stealing games from Amazon.
- n4r9 3y agoI think this is a domain issue. Moral imperatives like this tend to apply to the domain of "duty". Is it a duty to farm? No, of course not; but that doesn't make it immoral to farm. A hypothetical example of a "duty" might be "contribute to the economy". According to Kant, it is moral to do this as long as you'd like it if everyone did it.
