Two common objections against moral arguments claiming the necessity of individual changes in food consumption encompass first, that the relation between these choices and the predicted harm is indirect and second, that such claims infringe on the individual’s freedom of choice in a way that qualifies as unjust. This paper aims to discuss the contribution of a normative conception of sustainability in rebutting these objections and thus reasoning a moral argument asking for green food consumption.
