“Less” is better
I agree with some of the aims of the Green movement, but not the overall goal of prioritizing the health of the Earth while disingenuously ignoring the importance of human health & happiness.
I think the word “Less” gets the point across with less convolution, and, if held as a value, would result in the achievement of many Green values anyway.
Hunh? What does this mean? I support “green” initiatives because I don’t want to eat food filled with poison, drink water filled with poison, and breathe air filled with poison. If I wasn’t worried about the effects on my personal health, I wouldn’t care as much.
