it's because of climate change, cows and chicken use too much space, resources (water, crop), so we're burning down big regions (amazon rainforest) to have enough space. We also can't feed the whole world with meat, so we can either go all vegan or have a different way of producing meat, so why not skipping the whole animal part?
- karol 5y agoMost of the things you listed sound like simple, indisputable issues everyone agrees about. This is actually not the case. I suggest researching into this a bit further. There is a documentary Sacred Cow and a book Being Ecological by T Morton, which are a good start. Also this article: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/aug/25/veganism-intensively-farmed-meat-dairy-soya-maize https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/aug/25/vegani... Leaving aside the truth in these claims, if the article linked in this thread demonstrates that natural processes are more energy efficient than labwork, the choice in a clean energy starved society should be very simple. I can't imagine why we need to mine the metals, build the panels or wind turbines, build the lab buildings and the equipment just to get a chunk of nutrients of questionable quality (drenched in antibiotics).
