your link doesn’t mention meat once.
>ethical
right. because growing billions of animals in inhuman conditions and slaughtering them is humane
>health
don’t feel like linking a source right now but higher red meat and sausage consumption are linked to colon cancer. this is a bit of a weaker point than the others
>ecological
wrong again. 7% of total emissions come just from gasses released by livestock. and about 60% of total ice free land is used to house the livestock and grow feed. [1] meat is just inefficient. 80% of arable land is used on meat and feeding that meat for only 20% of the worlds calories. [2]
that just isn’t sustainable if the population keeps growing.
eating meat is fine (arguably) but don’t try and justify it with bullshit. just say you like meat.
