And so you would simplistically assign those attributes to all who do not demand the end to the use of cars and insist that we all go back to living in caves?
Sorry, I don't really follow. What attributes are you meaning?
The attributes of seafood? The attributes of vehicle exhaust? Or the attributes of people who "ensure the seafood is safe to eat, and the cars are safe to drive"?

Why have you jumped to "all who do not demand the end of the use of cars" what does that have to do with greed and consumerism? The end of it, or what?
Have you perhaps simplistically assigned this meaning to the OP, so you're actually doing what you appear to be saying I'm doing or the author of the quoted part of my OP is doing?

Hypography?
