  Ships can use sail.

  Also, we don’t really need this much consumption.

    You know how many ships are needed to transport the thousands of components in the vast supply chain of computer chips? its a lot

    If shiping slows down, computer chips become more expensive. And the whole world relies on them for everything. That includes you.

    i really doubt sail powered ships are as fast as oil powered ones

      Good. I want less consumerism. I know it will effect me, but I already do my best to minimize my impact. Hearing the whines up materialistic shits will only make it better.

        do you realize that if shiping became vastly more expensive then fertilizers will become more expensive and then so will food?? not to mention how much more expensive meds would get

        the whole world relies on this, and its not just about consumerism

        also no avocados if no shiping
