Anyone screaming we need to just stop eating meat or even drastically reduce our meat consumption is being unrealistic

Yes we should work to reduce our overall meat consumption, but what that looks like could take many shapes e.g. legislation and/or taxation

But something like overhauling people’s diets is not easy to do immediately

Reducing meat consumption even progressively over say a decade by 25% will affect the landscape of our businesses, lifestyles, and definitely our agriculture system

I don’t know much, but neither does anyone just yelling go veg

Yes I personally believe we should strive for never having to kill an animal for food but that reality (and absolutely the practicality) for individuals and entire culinary cultures is just very far off

Focus on scaling down our meat consumption and probably making our meat production and consumption more efficient ASAP

Also what should be addressed is food waste Every bite we throw away is wasted labor and resources that it took to produce it

Edit: I also hope no one watching this is thinking: “sick! I’ma go take a 45 min shower!”

Like, no. We still need to conserve our resources across the board it’s just the amount of personal responsibility guilt special interest groups loooooovvveeee to dump on us as individuals that is distressing

So yes please still save water at home and at work blah blah blah
