> packaging the same species up in lots of different colorful packages doesn’t create biodiversity.
@ Rob: would the same be valid for living animals, who all are made of the same bloodcells and have 99% the same DNA?
I'd bet that 90% of these products are primarily made up of Zea Mays, the corn plant. Sadly, packaging the same species up in lots of different colorful packages doesn't create biodiversity.
One new product for every species that dies out. Well think of this one: when bees grow extinct, flowers and crops won't be able to reproduce. That should eventually decrease the number of supermarket products, no? Or would we have found a bee-substitute by then?
