In this case it doesn’t, you’re stealing luxury items that are playing a huge huge role in water consumption. It’s like 91 liters of water per day per tree.
And an academic study focusing on global implications for water scarcity from the growth in avocado production says that that growing avocado requires “four times more water than the production of a kilo of oranges and ten times of that of a kilo of tomato”.
I’m aware how much water animals consume when compared to plants and there are crops that are simply unjustifiable and are running water reservoirs dry.
If we are to be intellectualy honest regarding preservation of resources, there are no sacred cows.
wait but would paying for it be better? does it just goes into the pocket of the store owner and gives them more motive to sell avocados? anyways i feel bad for enjoying avocados now sob

Now check up how much water is required for meat, and suddenly realise that you’re maybe fighting the wrong battle here mate.
Regardless.

The best case scenario is people stop buying exotic foods and instead be ok with what is in season with an occasional treat.
