Feels like they're using climate change as an excuse to annoy rich people, who will not stop flying just because it costs $200 more. Why not spend your energy on something that would actually move the needle on climate change?
- myshpa 3y agoMy words ... whole air travel is 1.9% of emissions, animal ag is 15%, aprox? Phase out subsidies for fossil fuels, stop subsidies for animal agriculture (redirect them to regenerative ag. and vegetables), start massive afforesting. Right?
- ilyt 3y agoYes, you will eat bugs while rich people will continue enjoying their steaks
- Invictus0 3y agoYes, that's the whole point of being rich... you can afford luxurious things...
- friend_and_foe 3y agoYou want meat to be a thing only rich people can afford? And you justify this by saying you want to help the poor?
- AnimalMuppet 3y agoInvictus0 said they wanted to actually do something about climate change. They never said they wanted to help the poor.
- Invictus0 3y agoRead the usernames. I never said a single word about meat. What I am saying is that rich people should obviously be able to buy more things than poor people, that is the definition of being rich. And I have no qualm about rich people existing, even billionaires: presumably they generated more value for the rest of the society than their wealth, and if not, then it's up to society to change the tax code.
