You're right, but maybe missing the point? Everything is subject to capitalism and market viability. There are a lot of hard problems that have commercially unviable solutions. mRNA vaccines were largely in this category until COVID. A

Thanks for the measured response. Asking why can reflect either genuine curiosity or a challenge. If it's genuine curiosity, then it's what you want. A chance to share your values. Are you genuinely curious why you ask omnivores w

This isn't a vegan issue. Making it one, along with a smug characterization, doesn't help to convert more people over to your cause. Mature plants nurse their young, providing carbon to younger plants through a mycelial network[0]
