What
do we mean by nature?
Wild animals and plants and their habitats. Why
does nature protection begin with intelligent consumption?
Many animal and plant species live in areas that are cultivated. The intensity
of agriculture determines the ecological quality of habitats and the survival
of fauna and flora. With intelligent consumption you can reduce the intensity
of agriculture and improve the quality of habitats. Further food such as mushrooms,
fish and game is collected, caught or hunted in its natural environment. This
often causes imbalances and damage to the corresponding ecosystems. By giving
up eating of such foodstuffs, you will protect nature. |
