> red meat
I've been vegan for decades, and I would love to see humanity move on from meat, but the idea is so incredibly offensive to people that I find it far easier to imagine the the Amazon razed and replaced with cattle feeding lots before that will happen.
- renegade-otter 3y agoWe are supposed to stop eating meat while our governments cut taxes for corporations as their management buys that third infinity pool. Corporations are "people", my friend - while being absolved from any social responsibility.

- Timon3 3y agoStudies seem to indicate that the cattle industry produces somewhere between 11% and 17% of global greenhouse emissions: https://thebreakthrough.org/issues/food-agriculture-environment/livestock-dont-contribute-14-5-of-global-greenhouse-gas-emissions https://thebreakthrough.org/issues/food-agriculture-environm... How do you get from that to less than 0.1%?
