        It’s a moral consideration this isn’t a fucking logic problem.

        I don’t value ecosystems, but I do value animal lives. Unsure how I could be wrong about that on a moral level.

        If a pack of dogs was loose in a forest; I would not kill the dogs, for example.

          Don’t be silly. All moral considerations are logic problems. Theory without praxis is immaterial at best and concern trolling at worst.

          And ecosystems are made up of a sum of lives, animal and otherwise. Their collapse inherently kills animals. There is no moral superiority in allowing deaths by inaction.

        Having the same moral value for a fire and living creature is wrong.

        You can do a million things other than kill them to fix the problem… but killing them is cheapest, so that’s what’s done.

      I mean I’m not gonna kill myself because a few billionaires fucked the environment.

      I feel like blaming the whole human species for ecosystem collapse and climate change isn’t fair since we’ve existed for millennia, and the world was fine then.
