    This really speaks volumes to how little people care about where their food comes from.

    The amount of meat, for example, that is just thrown away sickens me. As if it’s not bad enough that we farm animals in deplorable conditions, we kill them so they can be thrown straight into the trash.

    Sometimes, when I am reminded of the plague our species is upon this planet, I just can’t care about keeping homo sapiens sapiens from going extinct.
