> within the top 1% of global wealth > but struggle to feed themselves Wealth means assets. If you can't feed yourself you do not have assets and therefore you don't have wealth. There is extreme lack of poverty in the U.S.

To be honest it puts the video above into practice requiring some level of accountability. I would recommend it for anyone who is procrastination prone. There are some really solid techniques (that are based on most recent science) that has

Meat is inherently manly. Consuming meat at the scale that Americans (for instance) do is not manly, it's extremely irresponsible. Steak as cake. I like that. I'm genetically susceptible to cholesterol more so than others. I like

Chicken and bugs are about equal when it comes to gram vs. gram of protein.

I view this as a very short term problem (i.e. the artificial effect on the planet through our own doing.) And I'm not saying that it isn't a problem and that we shouldn't be doing anything. The planet naturally goes through

The way politics works in this case would then be to vote those out of office who challenge these changes. The problem with this is that the populace won't because they are skeptical, for very good reasons. They see models not working

You mention the "it's already too late" meme. Where do you get this? I ask because as far as I can tell we were told 20 years ago that it would be too late 10 years in the future (10 years ago for us) based on models that hav
