The difference between electricity, etc being unnatural is that those are adding something to our lives. It's a lot harder to avoid something that is natural than to do something that is not natural.
Nutritionally, of course it's possible. In terms of global culture, yes, I'm saying veganism isn't possible.

Well despite my fiery rhetoric, I am down with anyone who is trying to reduce - it's not quite an all or nothing proposal from my point of view, but this word "natural" you keep using...
As humans, we have the power to decide what is natural. It's a construct. How is it natural to love our pets and in the same day opt into a diet which kills other animals we don't know personally? How is it natural to decide we want to grow edible plants in order to feed
something else that we then eat?
