Obesity related conditions are some of the leading causes of death. There are also advantages to simplifying your lifestyle and expenses. Sometimes less consumption can be an end unto itself.

We can disagree about climate change and the rest of it, but the results of a sedentary lifestyle can't be ignored. There's also no room for indignation at an imagined holier-than-thou position when you take this approach.

I've found this simple, obvious observation about obesity especially interesting in regards to the current public health scare and the rise of the bio-security state.
