@ambiguous_yelp @rancholibertad Microbes most likely have no moral value. What matters is cognition not life. Many nonhuman animals clearly have cognition. Predation in ecosystem isn’t inherently morally good either. We should also act to reduce #WildAnimalSuffering as well

Can someone recommend environmental and ecological #economics literature from the moral perspective that the only relevant metric is #WildAnimalWelfare? What economic policies would have the best impact in reducing wild animal suffering?

It is amazing to see those questions discussed widely! We should really stop committing the appeal to nature fallacy when we are the first to (rightly!) criticize it when non-vegans use it to justify animal farming.

Promoting Welfare Biology as the Study of Wild Animal Suffering
Why is Welfare Biology Important?
by Maria Salazar
"Animal advocates should incorporate a concern for wild animals as an integral part of the defense of nonhuman animals."
