Meat-based proteine is important in so many different ways.
Yes, it is possible avoid meat and still have a child develop well. It was also possible to install Linux on your PC in 1991/1992. Most people couldn't, but the really smart (or special) ones could.
- notepad0x90 11mo agoI meant beef specifically, not meat in general. Our ancestors didn't eat bovine meat every single day like we do now. Plus cows take up lots of grazing ground, and I'm not happy about how they're treated worse over time because we keep eating more of them, and that requires more and more cruel ways of supplying that beef. Chicken and sheep seem to be more sustainable. But either way, I think it is good for our health to rotate the types of meat we eat and lower the portions a bit? But it's easier said than done for sure.
- lysace 11mo agoOk. Just noting: Realistically, your concerns are not going to change the eating desires of actual humans in the real world. So the plan is a beef tax, then? Here's a reality check from Sweden: https://www.svt.se/nyheter/inrikes/svenskarna-dissar-kottskatt-som-klimatatgard-vill-ha-billigt-kott https://www.svt.se/nyheter/inrikes/svenskarna-dissar-kottska...

- notepad0x90 11mo agoI think just raising awareness is enough. Trends come and go. People are drinking a lot less milk these days than in the 80's or prior for example. But on the flip side, ozempic and similar weight loss drugs are probably promoting over-consumption now.
