- uxcolumbo 4y agoThe point is that it's not sustainable. We can't feed the world with a meat only diet. There are other diets that are more sustainable. People who switched to a meat only diet usually cut out junk and highly processed food - of course you're seeing a more positive change. Don't eat highly processed food, reduce saturated fat and reduce sugar intake.

The parent was talking about _health_, not climate. Sustainability of meat industry is irrelevant completely to healthiness or non-healthiness of being a human carnivore.

Here is an interesting graph from IPCC's data showing the impact of various diets on green house gas emissions. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-02409-7 https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-02409-7
