Abstract
Ought one to feed people rather than save nature? People value many worthwhile things over feeding the hungry; they post national boundaries against the poor; there is unjust distribution of wealth; escalating birthrates offset gains in alleviating poverty; there is low productivity on domesticated lands; sacrificed wildlands are often low in productivity; and significant natural values may be at stake. Sometimes, one ought to save nature.
