> I wonder how many people go vegetarian purely for climate reasons ... to what degree? The numbers are growing steadily, enough to make producers of animal products increasingly nervous. > giving up air travel, private vehicles, imported fruit and veg, concrete etc Animal agriculture is worse than transport and concrete together (not just emissions, but deforestation, biodiversity loss, eutrophication, water usage, pollution ...) We cannot avoid polluting entirely. However, we can minimize our impact as much as possible, and I'd argue that by replacing animal products with plant-based alternatives, people lose nothing while reducing their negative footprint significantly.
