So oat milk is better for the environment?

[Lilith7]

It's marketing. Cardboard is always made from  plants and the oats thing is just more product development to boost the return to the ag industry. The increased processing required is not good for the planet so we can pretty much add this to the list of greenwashed marketing campaigns that grows by the day.

Tricky human creatures, precious...

The world is a weird place. And humans are crazy.

Because apparently, its just far too difficult to work towards making our world a fairer one rather than maintaining the gap between rich & poor, & its far too difficult to stop polluting our planet to the same extent & clean up the mess we've made & far too difficult to in fact do anything at all, if it might bugger up our comfortable lifestyles.
We must make profits, & more profits, & yet more, & if that's at the disadvantage of some poor sods from some other country, well that's sad but can't be helped; perhaps they should have been born somewhere else, or go & live in another country.
Just not ours, 'we don't want those people coming here' do we.

I don't think there's any doubt - we're idiots. I wonder if Earth is the insane asylum for the universe...
