Probably Indo Elephant super green <| sep |> When u just took a 2 hour online philosophy course <| sep |> I agree that it ' s wasteful and I agree that waste is on average bad . What I don ' t agree with is that wasting food is somehow inherently worse than other forms of waste . I also agree that there are negative externalities . In my opinion these should be accounted for e . g . by implementing a carbon tax if climate change is on average bad . But doesn ' t pretty much every product have these ? If people waste less food they might just get another car . How is that any better ? I also believe that negative externalities are probably a lot cheaper than people think . They might even be close to negligible e . g . 1 cent per dollar of food wasted .
