You got my attention with the part about food. Today, I was actually reflecting on this very topic. As time goes by, I feel more and more like we’re eating just to eat. Fruits and vegetables have less and less flavor, and it’s clear that their nutritional value is almost nonexistent. Meat is loaded with antibiotics and various chemicals, because even the feed given to livestock is treated. Fish is full of heavy metals and plastic. Genuine “organic” products are expensive, and even then we have issues – for instance, in Europe, the soil is so overtreated it’s almost dead. “Organic” labels are slapped on products that aren’t really organic at all and are often imported from countries with looser standards. It’s a huge problem because food is our fuel. I’d even say it’s both our fuel and our health capital for the years to come. Very interesting article. Now that I understand the trilemma, but how do we solve it?
