Everytime you cut down a forest in the interest of the Agriculture you are contributing to the Demise of the Earth. Agriculture is not in alignment with the Earth System. What is in alignment is Permaculture food producing forests that are ecologically diverse. This is the point I am making.
Think about it. Step outside of the Box that you define your eating proclivities by and see it from the perspective of the Earth.
I have lived very close to the Earth and in the past when I have been hungry in the middle of the winter when there are no apples or wild fruits to harvest... and animals have given themselves so that I may live and my family may live.
Being an Omnivore does not mean I am any less Spiritual than you or that guy over there. Being an Omnivore and eating consciously is a middle path that I feel is in alignment with the Closed Loop system of the Earth.
Any farming that creates fields where forests once were is out of harmony with the Earth System. Meadows that are created by the Forest are in harmony.
As far as medical costs are concerned I rarely go to the doctors. The last time I was in the care of a doctor was when I had my twins and they did not actually do anything to promote my health. It was the choices that I make to eat a natural diet with mostly regional foods that are as organic or naturally raised as possible that contribute to my health. The eshewing of additives such as MSG, Preservative, foods packaged in plastics, food colorants, and "vitamin enriched foods" as well as the genetically altered foods and the eshewing of salt and processed foods as much as I am able to and still live in a "modern" world is what contributes to my health.
What is better that Deer starve to death and then rot in the forest or for another to eat and be fed? What is better?
